Oh, To Be The Feast

The Thought:
Out on a limb, dangling,
Do you think seeds
Believe
In reincarnation?
(Do seeds think
Or believe?)
As they develop
A fruit,
Most delectable
Around their seed
That they use
To trick
The passing mammal
Or insect
Into
Consuming
Do you think
The forest offspring
Hold
Fast to a faith
That
They, too,
Shall take root,
And grow to be a tree
The Concept:
My body is a fruit
My mind the seed
I want to be consumed
Oh,
To be the feast
To return
From soil, from air,
To earth
Redistribute and infuse
The world through
Reincarnate me
I was born
To bloom
And
Re-bloom
