Will the coconut’s drop
Will the lightning’s  strike
Will a single sting

Be the Reaper’s
Harvester: picking off
The rotting stalk

Which infects
Even the golden grain;
The apple of

A farmer’s eye.
Yes,  he trims
To keep the others

Growing
To their full
Height.

But no sickle
Can compare to
Death’s relentless knife.
