"Burrowing Deep into a Mountain"

"Burrowing Deep
into a Mountain"

by Suzán Jiván

Burrowing deep
into a mountain
of quartz and slate

back to normal behavior
spotting planes
setting off debates

facing greater
pistils and stamens
both dry and saline

spirally arranged leaves
often secretory
exuding water
and calcium salts

fused to form toothed tubes
splitting open longitudinally
stigmas and ovaries

hooking closely commonly grown within relatively
well-known colossal enclosures
the most notable being oak...
