fungusdream
by Ed Go
![A poem titled fungusdream by Ed Go. Text with alternating indentation: white mushrooms / have sprung from / the wristholes of / my wrists—two from / the wrist of my right / wrist & two from / the wrist of my left / thin-stemmed & / knobby-topped / like earbuds but / soft&fungy—why / are there holes / in my wrists?— / i / [indented] who beat / [indented] the blood / [indented] horde growth / growing holes that / [indented] you can see in— / hollow hands where / [indented] are the bones?— / when will cactuses / [indented] instead fill me—or / maybe silkrobes—or / [indented] creamy cream](/assets/ed-go-fungusdream-p01.png)
