Mushroom Cluster May 2016

 

"Overnight, very
Whitely, discreetly,
Very quietly

Nobody sees us,
Stops us, betrays us;
The small grains make room.

...

We are shelves, we are
Tables, we are meek,
We are edible,

Nudgers and shovers
In spite of ourselves.
Our kind multiplies:

We shall by morning
Inherit the earth.
Our foot’s in the door."

-Excerpted from Sylvia Plath's "Mushroom" poem

I don't think anyone could explain them better.
