Survival Tips
I often think of scent as a disguise
but it can also serve as conduit to revelation
Why does the lemon smell
the way it does
It is just a right-handed orange
In order to survive
it needs to be eaten
The brighter and more fragrant lemons
were eaten more
and so they survived
A story
To make what is better than the self
you can accomplish this
with the self as an accomplice
The other hand on the sword
belongs to
a steadying force
You must find your way to one another
Fascinating how you followed the inspiration for this poem.
