Mushroom
You are
a maverick of the old kingdom,
For lack
of green pigment and true organ,
Now assigned
to a new serfdom your own.
Rise enigmatic
prodigal son,
For if
the Sun God sleeps behind deathly cloud,
The whole
earth shudders in Armageddon.
Take
over from your brothers once proud,
And
feed the surviving mankind ‘til dawn.
