In the upcoming fight of
purple-red cultivar
versus
red-purple wild-grower,
who does Mr Gardener root for?
“May a pomegranate outlive
telephone lines with rooting interest in air plants,”
the outlaw answers drily.
The outcast’s lisp
poised to outlast a grenade blast
is to blame for Mickey (almost) hearing
‘airplanes.’
(A misterious grin
resolvable by imagining teeth
was the first piece of the jigsaw
dew-dropping
into
place.)
