erect climbing n trailing
serrated edges of budding
love /deciduous wind
pollinates /epidermal out growths
sickle shaped hooks of torture
vestigial flicker of delight
browsing at the end of a meadow
Form:
hiding from its prey
a toad changes bright of skin--
master of disguise

~Creatures of nature use camouflage while hunting
or avoiding predators. They use skin cells
( chromatophores ), which transform epidermal layers
by adapting color, shade, and reflection.
Dry skin caused by frozen winter winds
Caused by over washing
Too much caution given to cleanliness
The rough ridges distinctly defined
Will soon go away with care and time
These epidermal deserts
Are greatly in need of an oasis
Some lotion for lubrication
To make the redness in the deserts turn to tan
And now I wonder, why?
Why am I writing about my hands?
Under new management
his skin became more porous
epidermal squamous cells
more translucent,
maybe he was just getting older
maybe the new governor
of his think-machinery
did a better job of keeping up with
everyday maintenance.
His eyes were never the best
but he often did not need them
to see through the obvious,
the unconscious slight-of-hand
chicanery of other's.
He also saw where he had been
a facsimile and ersatz to the hilt.
He chuckles now
as he cleans house again.
