Is to exist

Me, Earth,

The illness, a farmer

Tilling with desperate hands to plant.

More sickness? Something bountiful?

My body, the illness, holes, pieces of me in its mouth,

Rotten? Wholesome?

Both wrap themselves around its teeth.

Me, Tree, wood,

The illness, a hatchet, a drill

Who am I if my body does not exist?

Who am I if my body does exist?

Who am I?
