after fences
fall, and bite
into armored

that ability to talk with our toes

and tongue remember
to remember plants,
like childhood stories
with visiting siblings,
where are my twins,
plants raised from mud
with me, play-penned
together when all
was young?

as if the weight of bodies holds
no pressure, as if the fish and fruit
we eat have no siblings.
