A poem is merely the visible part

Mycelium

Verses sprout unseen
in free-form mental mulch,
iambic words accreting
in search of greater wholes.

Random threads of coupled thought
writhe darkly with omens of discontent,
birthed in frustrated hope,
nourished by angry dreams.

Poesy erupts in sudden, shocking bloom,
a full-formed, fruiting cry for justice,
spreading subversive spores
that root in receptive minds.

Verses sprout unseen . . .
