Stuart Rawlinson #94 - Picking Leaves

Tuber in the dirt
root of all evil
scrape with a knife
twist the cells
           I felt 
a twine 
cracked fibres 
dried up vessel 
liars in the grass   
           pull taut 
lift up to the light
sight through 
motionless veins
the leaves don’t drop
            not here
bark peels 
strips clean
dead skin for the heap
