in the end

it’s innuendo

what is meant

& what is sensed–

through

second-sight

& introspection

–the black

…limbs in symmetry

branch entwined together

the tree is life is we

 
 

–the pattern that you see

in cosmic & in nether

limbs in symmetry

 
 

–in waterway & leaf

precision yet unmeasured

the tree is life is we

 
 

–in every living beast

bloodlines carry feather

limbs in symmetry

 
 

–in folio or speech

dynamic, linking letter

the tree is life is we

 
 

–is tipping truth of “be”

is vital, vining treasure

limbs in symmetry

tree is life is we.

–to soothe

if not assuage

upset–

is trimming fat

Note: it bears mentioning this haiku is all about the innuendo–rather than “in an Endo”. In 17 syllables it incorporates: scripture, Zeitgeist reference, homonyms & multiple double entendre …;) PD irresistible to this tongue-in-cheek gal.
