Recovering

Outgunned by life,you escape 
to epipheny. The inner- 

voice had betrayed. Are you
ready to meet the believer ?

Sad ending of mithridatism- 
in the wake of realization.   

The growing clout of pink petals
was overwhelming the dust.

The leaf body mimics the 
rocks. From the rear ocean 

a wailing picks up the blackberries.
I was ready for the final assault.

Predawn blitzkrieg begins.
You start picking the apples from

the green eyes. The truth-
was never so near to moon.
