Re: Cocus wood

I once made a barrel from cocus
Into my lungs it did choke-us**
Wheezing and itching
Around my neck, a noose on the gallows
teardrops and scratching. Onto my throat
Like cocus made into bolas*

**not true....I always wear a filter mask when using the lathe, and gloves when working with cocobolo or cocus. After sealing the wood, I notice no further irritation
