A Symbiosis, A Parasitism Poem by RIC BASTASA

A Symbiosis, A Parasitism



lichen to tree
moss to rock

river on the bed
stars to the sky

caterpillar
on the leaf

pinworm
on the intestine

choose
what relationship
above
do have we?

we call ourselves
sweet
we mask ourselves
with the face
of love

time shall tell
the truth
