The day after tomorrow


...We turned red to fast and split our skins...
...so here we sit, leaking...
...the flies come by now and then...
...sucking up the sweet goo...
...leaving behind their young...
...who wiggle deep down in our middles...
...tomorrow we burst...
...releasing new flies...
...we are spent, but our seeds show promise...
...for the day after tomorrow...
