Early in the morning a painting by Rosenquist

Pop your pill and pluck each of my segments
Pluck with darkened fangs and scrape my rind.
Legs escape logic as city’s fall through thin slits,
                                                         Sew me whole.

Scrapers dance along my stomachs edge,
windows crack to smell my thoughts.
Pull my stitching and lay me open.
Spill my nectar, colour the earth with my pulp.

Float from the barren floor sodden with my sap,
to the sky, torn indecisively,

                                            see what my acid does. `
