FULL MOON ON TOP OF A CHAMPAGNE PALM'S TIP

most trees
do not bear fruit
it dawns upon
us
as we walk tall
upon
this new metaphor

this new rationalization
that some
survive upon a grafted
idea
marconi
was said to be a marcot
but he is
never a bigot
some species
are not meant to be
multiplied
those rare ones
that God so loved
that He does not
want
them
copied some
more.
