 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)
