asteracean parachutes
make a seed of me
from which fertile fruit will grow
and roots become strong
thick like oaken thighs
from tumbling acorns
woody stalks
unfurling leaves
reaching for the sun
as above
so below
surfing that dendritic flow
pouring out of her nucleus
a flower blooms
from the sacred womb.
