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)
