You wind the brass crown slow
Time roots in diesel glow
Quercus waits by pump three
Roots drink gasoline tea
Neon root grows through the night
Pocket watch drinks station light
Second hand taps root cap rhythm
You bloom in petroleum prism
Brass hinge kisses concrete cold
Taraxacum breaks the mold
Chronos bleeds in hydrocarbon
You photograph each growing one
Neon root grows through the night
Pocket watch drinks station light
Second hand taps root cap rhythm
You bloom in petroleum prism
Lupinus drinks the sodium hue
Watch hands point to morning dew
Meristem splits the asphalt skin
You let the native seeds begin
Neon root grows through the night
Pocket watch drinks station light
Second hand taps root cap rhythm
You bloom in petroleum prism
Brass case rests on rusted steel
Time and chlorophyll heal
You wind the crown one final turn
Watch the green world slowly burn
Neon root grows through the night
Pocket watch drinks station light
Second hand taps root cap rhythm
You bloom in petroleum prism
Neon root holds through the dawn
