Secretive Soil Fauna

 

of the fungi

I have done

 

apart no crime

can come

 

sintered slew

mite and nematode

 

accosting in

the earliest makeshift

 

roots’ most intimate

symbiosis

 

ever you crowd

the crowded shades

 

close to

blue mold spikes

 

granular

impacts of

 

the inexhaustible

crimp and sinus

 

plot just

how is it you

 

think you can

come in here and

 

scut the fatty mastics

off

 

the antagonies

the parsimonies
