Death Sows A Bright Seed © by D.

potential fills
my every fiber

the seed of life
ascension
& germination

pressure builds
I can’t contain
the life within

hatchlings
of cool earth
an unfolding 
drama
of subterrestrial
birth

reaching
worming

grasping
for the 
open sky

rooting
steady
deep

the labor
the journey

to breathe
to inspire
the single 
desire
of all of those
buried alive

extending
my extending
tendrils
I eagerly
make
my way
from decay
into a brilliant
living display

breaking into
the bluest day

forever
reaching further
breathing deeper

myriads of
change & color
purpose & beauty

to make 
great use
of the sun
and of death
to feed me
as I expand
in all
directions

soak in
as agony
& struggle
peak
in a delicate
explosion

tenuous
precious
fleeting
like a
fantastic 
pyrotechnic 
display
nurturing
nostalgia
in a
similarly
spectacular
way

even stinging
automatic drones
desire a
sweet taste
& a fertile
home

they will
according
to leisurely
programming
sip 
of 
me
