In Tropical Regions

" In Tropical Regions "

by Suzán Jiván aka
Mom-Mom Suzán

for Kenny, Jimmy & Eric...

I

In tropical regions
borne simply singly
attached at tips
often twisted
by differing
genuses

II

After radical symmetry
boiled and eaten
with prominent ribs
downy on the outside
rising funnel-like
along one side

III

Greenish white
bruised easily
like winged seeds
angled between
columnar structures
moist and abundant

IV

Conspicuous crowns
as rings of bracts
and crowded panicles
of deepest lavender

V

Diverging branches
short-stalked
downward and backward
wet ground dried flowers...
