Reams of Fertile Seeds

" Reams of Fertile Seeds "

by Suzán Jiván

Performed on YouTube
as, " Senescence of
Self-Defense "

In a hard-hitting
senescence
of self-defense
suspicious
of more or less
as larger
and flatter cells
in arterial plaque
becoming
overly active
and curbing out
patchy malignancies
with relationships
between aging
and inflammation
fostering getting shorter
in self-styled hindsight
probably drunken
and possibly violent
Outshining an imposing
atmosphere of fear
by threading together
senses of dread being fed
by a profusion of grueling shoots
and lethal tubers inducing
withered pistillates, musky heads
and necrotic stems then-
dropping reams of fertile seeds
onto blackening fields
with vernal inevitability
with a redeeming alchemy...
