Cypress knees drink tannin tea
Telecaster hums in open D
Ribbon dried like xylem vein
Typewriter waits for monsoon rain
I dust the keys with Spanish moss
Taxodium roots avoid the loss
Each strike a seed in humid air
Germination clacks beyond compare
Dichotomous key unlocks the night
Binary choice in fading light
Left or right the carriage swings
Paper breathes what delta brings
Ink bleeds dark like iris peat
Cajun prairie bitter sweet
Stems align in Fibonacci rows
Count the beats where silence grows
Dichotomous key unlocks the night
Binary choice in fading light
Left or right the carriage swings
Paper breathes what delta brings
Metronome clicks like cicada song
Quarter notes where roots belong
Time signature shifts in loam
Writing genome code for home
You sit quiet on the swing
Dragonfly on copper string
No latin needed for the gaze
Shared photosynthesis in haze
Final page feeds the soil bed
Decomposition green and red
Typewriter rusts to oxide bloom
Life persists in peat and gloom
Dichotomous key unlocks the night
Binary choice in fading light
Left or right the carriage swings
Paper breathes what delta brings
Roots and ribbons fade
