If the end of the world was getting closer
and I had to fend for myself
I wouldn’t last two weeks
because I do not know
which mushrooms are okay to eat
and which are not
berries
leaves
pretty much
anything
could be safe
or unsafe
those things
are completely unknown
to me
I do know that you are supposed
to run any water you find
through cheesecloth
not really helpful
if you don’t carry
cheesecloth
around with you
maybe that’s something
we should have learned
in school
instead of where flax
came from
knowing what to eat
in order to stay alive
seems more important
than flax
but what do I know
mushrooms are a beautiful
fungus
among us
but I won’t touch
the wild ones
nope
friend or foe
just don’t know
the people in murder mysteries
don’t know either
that’s why they are always poisoned
with them
seriously
they are
