Green leaf
My green, four-leaf pills./
Am I Irish enough? /
I swallow my pride.

“The world was built by ants,” the first ant said.
The second ant didn’t disagree, but added, “We are not alone.”
“We are never alone,” the first ant said, “but that makes our triumph all the more delicious.”
“Like these leaves,” several ants said, including the second.
I guess the second overthrow of the world can wait, the first ant thought. Can’t do it on an empty stomach. He bit of a section of the leaf he was one.

Love puts forth a leaf. /
In my garden of desire /
the snake has purpose.
