Barren Fruit
the high hanging fruit
hid the noose as he bit down
consuming his doom
he suckled knowledge
without honoring respect
thus wisdom suffered
rot hollowed his soul
he walks midst death and decay
a hybrid creature
time trickles down truth
karma starts her harvesting
he's ripe for plucking

Careful not to take too much...lest it feeds on you. You have a way of speaking truth...
