MUGWORT            
             =======            
                                          
 SHORT  PLANT THAT YEARNS FOR  MY  LIVER. 
                                          
 A  PROMISE  AND  A  TEASE,  SPREAD  WELL 
   THROUGHOUT WAKING LIFE, ALONG DITCHES  
 AND ETHEREAL  PLAINS  (MY  EYES HIT  THE 
 TREELINE  BEHIND THE HOUSE. WHATS BEYOND 
      THEM? ABANDONED QUARRY, SLOWLY      
 RECLAIMED.  AND THERE AT THE  EDGE OF MY 
         DAYDREAM, GROWS MUGWORT).        
                                          
       GRAY-GREEN SUIT WITH FRILLS.       
 INVERTED TRIPOD. GRAY COINS IN THE WIND. 
                                          
   THERE ARE WHISPERS ABOUT... MEDICINAL  
 QUALITIES.   I   FORGET  NOW   IF   IT'S 
 COMPARABLE TO DREAMROOT OR  TO CANNABIS, 
 BUT     IT'S    ONE    OF    THE    TWO. 
                                          
 THERE'S  A  DEAFENING  SLIENCE  FROM THE 
   SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY ON ITS TOXICITY   
      (NO RESEARCH, IF YOU BELIEVE)
