Sweet-Orchard Poet Trees

(an oldt 'cave wall scratches' write...re-written   : )
-----------------------------------------------------------------

poet trees sweet-orchard door

waking as locked
in a dream of
plato's cave

a sentry there-in spoke
an exit code and
riddled questions

 - c - y - c -
1: see  - why see?
2: why - why see why?
3: see  - why see why see's?

so i pondered...3 -
why...see why see's?
and replied

why's...see why
seeing why...see's why
seeing why...sees why!

the sentry stated - exit...and
scratch your 3 = 2 + 1
outside the cave door then
enter the poet tree orchard

with a pebble i etched -
wise sees...why
why's see...wise why's
