in this human plant *** i sit
withering away bit by bit
no sunlight here nor in far sight
with such little to my delight
hindered from growth
filled with self-loathe
to who do I call
to bring forth rainfall?
drop by drop I float atop
this human plant *** encasing its crop
I'm drowning amidst what feels to be a drought
of meaningful moments of what I'm without
the *** is now all that remains
in telling a story of one's only gain
in consuming more than is required
in losing yourself to desire.
