it’s just a matter of how

Parent message is 592652
when the sensitive organs rebel,
and tissues respond with mutiny
raging against the stakes

we all in one form or another
are penetrated with seismic tools
ear to the ground to estimate wait
before the rumbling
sets the corpse to grumbling

away with age and intrusive probes
just hug the watertower
painted in that John Deer Green
your love for what’s unlovable of love
in grief, devoured
