Something I Wrote During Lit Crit

Why I should have peaked in the 60's

I'll live beneath a tree
and I'll eat the leaves
or fruit, if it's a fruit tree
And I'll dig holes,
significant rows of holes,
small holes in large rows
And I'll make a small deposit,
a fertilizer shit
to grow more trees, to create
a garden of trees
a garden of natural processes
a garden of earthy, uncombed tresses
I'll wear dirt and air and watery dresses
that grace and caress
the body--a garden
for gardens.
