Growing

separated, lost and stranded in an island in a know name sea

was a lone explorer blessed or cursed with curiosity

faced with something, what ever that something may be

stood before said individual was a lifeforms unknown

a true, logic defying oddity

an active fountain fruiting things sweet and savory

the though sprang to this persons mind 'harvested the entire bounty'

or milked it of its life, plucked it from its grounded toes or chopped it into cuts

but instead, this human only sampled from the tree

a palm full of fluid and a single fruit before leaving this life-form be

was it wrong to exorcise curiosity?

this fortunate explorer soon saw his team

"I could be a rich man, that was always my dream"

the taste so nondescript it would retail at a high fee

though it didn't appeal to him to exploit this beauty

leaving and never speaking a word of what he had seen

he soon returned to his reality

he may not be the king he grew up wanting to be

but on his own scale, he felt he evolved within his own humanity
