To search for the root of you
the tendril of your ecstasy
is the reason for muscularity
in a tongue.
finds the saline in the succor
the sugar in your sap-making
cambium.
as a means of production
of confectionery
cause celebre
makes me a farmer, a forester
a man who reaps what he sows
and toils in fields
once dead.
in this reprieve
this unrequited requiem
of the harvest moon
I will lay aside the scythe
and the plow
and instead look to you
deliciously organic
and till...
and till...
until nothing remains fallow.
