Swallowing The Seed

swallowing the seed
fear begins to grow
the seed sprouts inside
his belly and roots begin
to travel inside his prostate
down to his bottom
unto his feet
immobilizing him

the seed begins to have
buds and leaves
and twigs and
huge trunks

his eyes shrink on the barks
his nose all gone
there are no signs of the original man

he swallowed the seed of life
that no one dared.
