The Essence of an Apple

The Essence of an Apple

A Poem by Lindon Slater

It's one thing: an ambiguity
Unable to accept a brief explanation
it's unknown by just words

Of malice and envy-it knows not
yet, it knows of fear and loss
Refusing to leave the recipient
it dwells as a soft purity within

It is never lost
It is created within many
and once manifested
it will not wither 

The power it possesses is significant
It is wielded against all enemies
but is not a painful weapon

Even though it is strong
it is in fear of one thing:
losing its individual
