Behold this naked harvest
Of unripe eyes
Ripening
On the gentle, gradual
Compass of time
Behold this naked harvest
Dedicated to ancestors
From our fertile soil
— who conceived
The fruit of promise
Behold this naked harvest
Of unripe eyes
Aspiring
To honor
The celestial language
Behold this naked harvest
Dedicated to nurture
Neurons
That will activate
A battle of words
Behold this naked harvest
Behold my
Observations,
And humble
lnquiry.
