harvesting human DNA
they’re talking about us
refractive plants
exhibiting arms
& shoulders
working on
additional features
if you cut them down
will they bleed
if you dig & divide
will they multiple tenfold
there is concern
in the fields
where the alien plants
[in short order]
mimic what they’ve learned
on earth thus far
soon they will be
able to think
soon they will be able
to speak
is it merely a coincidence
that the harvest moon
is scheduled to arrive
any night now
july two thousand twenty-three
