After Adam Clay
Grizzly bear skin rugs to be
Sown back on the hides of their owners
Another tree to become the oldest tree
Alive
Can’t we use rice paper for
One life time or two?
Magicians to inherit real magic from the middles
Of split-open crystals
Crystals that look like brain
Cancer a cure for brain cancer
To taste the stevia on the tires of a
Car, driving the cross country
Road trip.
