E. R. Smith, 2018
Immortal Thoughts
Ponder cutting off parts of me, 45 degree angle
Open self to the source, pruned to the core
Root in the soil thirsty, lusty, newfangled
Seizing onto a boiling sphere for energy
Instinct only, drinking in elements
Shedding, healing, regenerating reverie
Everlasting, now united with liquid alloy
Young endlessly with the seasons, evergreen
