FOLK MEDICINE
Ten feet off this porch are plants
that would kill me if I ate them.
Ten feet from any plant that would kill me
is a plant that would save my life.
The antidote must resemble the poison.
How could it work otherwise?
The plants that kill
and the plants that save
look almost exactly like, like identical
twins asleep in a baby carriage.
