apple, sink

>> red ink swell swirl
meaningul as fat glob
of words, like painter
paints a tree, not to mean
something, but just to be
a tree, to say, look at
this tree, isn't
it swell, and not mak ing any
hinting hand ges tures  or
surrounded by t hin ly
veiled symbolism,   but
simply to be a tree and be
happy to be, and inside maybe
                                 an apple?

>> spit fishing -- finnicky in harness -- mouthwash
demon, Nile dream harasser, pressing through
tongue and juicy gum, still tasting of gin and
tonic, rude little creep slips between molars to
mulch his garden -- Black Soldier Fly larvae, fat
and grubby, hatch and buzz through sinuses,
asleep but already running, engine on, constantly
rebuilding, flossing, sweeping out the mud, dumping
compost down the drain, to plant tomatoes under
                                                                the sink?
