i was $1.88 a pound, but for you, dug deep into pockets for the change, i would discover myself as a new species; from the steppes, on horseback i came to you bow drawn, arrow to your throat. a fur trapper, you pet me slowly, wanting a trade. wash your hands, i growled. and soon my forests ripe with your fern spores shaken from the tops of your boots, and the rains started, unfurling the shoots i could have shot you dead - our eyes locked, and instead, i made you tea with longevity ginseng. forever now, you would remember the point, your windpipe grateful. ⴲ.

identified because you carried the original in your saddle bag, i, always there, you believed i somehow became when you noticed. yet i dwelt here digesting in the stomachs of deer, bear, and medicine women - since the dawn of time. but now i have a name, they harvest me, for a price - and though my purpose diverges from my cousin, valuable get the merchants sling me as an alternative, competitive market, they coo. and yes your heart races because my properties make your blood run hot, not clear. the profiteer versus the healer: i hope you die, trapper. have some more. i am here rooting. for you, my love: lick it clean. ⴲ.

they warn everyone about me in the trade commissions, the medical establishment. you, my templar, my tempest, skeptical of the rich men topping evidence you witness yourself, giants carrying girls to the stars - to live like a flame instead of ashes, acrid. "there is no evidence" in "science" they suit and tie, yet an empire built on digging roots for the hurricanes apothecaries, grandmothers, herbalists; living into biblical ages. garden hands, you could fight the masses, but when you believe your own eyes my inflated price disappears. for you: i am free because you are fair. live, my love. burn. ⴲ.

nothing in particular. she displays no traits which explain the health impacts of slurping her up, like royal jelly, you drown between the thighs like tubers reaching through the soil to china. like me without you. i am just doll. when you take me in, we metabolise and suddenly, the alchemy of digestion magically surges through your veins, neurone, nerve of you to not let me race up your spine. like a series of locks, clicking one vertebrae at a time, i pump your blood, sweeping your heart for me. sacrum to skull, like a lightbulb you remember me. let me walk in, i will show you. i am nothing in particular, unless you want to wake up your gut. ⴲ.

cook me. boil. oil rubbed on my unwieldy legs, wrapped around you, slippery with your sweat, panting in my ear, talk me through the recipe, bite my shoulder while i cut out the bullet, lodged in ribbed chest, can you identify me, by the surge in your blood, while rushing though tissues. i raise you to a simmer, grip tighter the congested life i cast away, from the selection over the counter. slide around my dictation, salty, my tongue tingles at the smack salty, my hands wet with your seed, salty, like the ocean we roll, waves crashing over and over. cardio for your vascular system. ancient magic. ⴲ.

alone, the masculine use esoteric information to gain power; the feminine use it to heal the body. the hermit (magician) and the crone (high priestess). together as a team, they create healthy, prosperous communities by building with one another to develop those individuated practices into shared environmental abundance. the emperor and empress, realized. 🌱

coconut oil, slicked down my legs in your lap, floppy sun hat, a dress resembling those 1970s knitted hanging pot holders. reading a magazine, about bulbs. barely glancing as you tell me about the day, wiggling my toes so you rub my feet while you lecture me. staring at the empty spaces in the flower bed, briefly thinking about our dark bedroom tonight, and considering which color of wisteria matches the munstead lavender mostest. and you reach your climactic point - about whatever it was and i smile sweetly, lean over and kiss you, and say "you are wonderful, dear". and you, pleased with yourself, nod triumphant, and begin sketching something new. ⴲ.

in every lifetime, i have found them again, in case i have the opportunity to show you, in my hands outstretched, i remember. i still carry the memory for us until i might carry the trinkets, then your fingers interlaced in mine, if you have forgotten: i will remind you. cast like a pair of dice, you and i. set to be snake eyes staring at those who seek to defy our choices. the air like orange blossoms this morning and i think i will write you a poem. on the wall. maybe in a thousand years, someone will see it and wonder how they loved so wildly. and once again, i will find some small animals cast in brass. because gold is now precious. and we were real. ⴲ.
