Apples form a strange root, you know?
They are simply from the earth. Could you give birth too? Like this world I need an Apple to satisfy me. What about a child? That would too do. Would it not? You father has become but a blot On this apple of mine, which I chew Hard, and fast, without remorse, I spew. A worm, in this apple you labored for me, Eats the rest of the apple, leaving but little, And I skoff it down in a hurry, Mrs. Not Me, Though it is but dittle. I laugh at your Produce. I’ll plant seeds from your apple core, And they will be mine, not yours. I cast you like I would cast a seedless apple. Worthless. A dike I build around my field, and I only converse with strangers. Players become nothing, and I plant myself a future, That the world will learn about, through proclaimers. I am simply what this world needs, something to gap the fissure.
