I liked the last sentence: "... and fungal feet to vie?"
A question. I see some resemblance (in style) with Nostradamus' quatrains. Is this a coincidence?

Thank goodness the word "vie" exists. There wasn't any other appropriate one syllable word with that vowel sound :-D Had to pause and puzzle over that last line for a while.
I don't believe I've read any of Nostradamus' poetry. In fact, I wasn't aware he was a poet. This co-incidence may be a synchronous isness-ity!
Example of Nostradamus' quatrain:
Century II Quatrain 1
French:
Vers Aquitaine par insuls Britaniques
Et par eux mesmes grandes incursions
Pluyes, gelees feront terroirs iniques
Port Selyn fortes fera inuasions.
English:
Towards Aquitaine by the British Isles
By these themselves great incursions.
Rains, frosts will make the soil uneven,
Port Selyn will make mighty invasions
