my tomato brain
spits seeds green
with envy green
as my eyes
undeveloped
by sun
supported by
stakes
concealed amongst
strangled vines
red
will expose them
irradiated
into ripeness
culled by bird
pecks
grub
gobblers
my green seeds
seek
escape
from red

The undercurrent of this is like a rip tide, the way it pulls the reader down into the red....
different style for you, very austere, but also very succinct, good stuff
Thanks. It's a weird one. 'green with envy' will have to go I suppose. being all cliched and such. sigh.
I was trying to write to a picture of a beautiful green tomato. lol
