In the Garden of Our Living

Lucy Tonic

In the garden of our living

The root chokes the vine

Energy is chemical, and so is time

*

In the garden of our living

The wise ones pick the ripe

Cause the ground has chemicals, and shifts to the wrong side

*

In the garden of our living

The special sell divine

All their words have chemicals, an owls hoot their lies

*

In the garden of our living

Not a creature cares for why

We are nothing but chemicals, each an oedipal eye
