Inspired by The Saints of Hampstead Heath

A hellish burnt sienna landscape creates a fog.

Two black figures stand face to face.

A mummified carcass lays unfazed by the gaze of the entities.

A man in the shape of an angel stands his ground

protecting the growing plant from harm and agony.

A satanic bird preys on the helplessness of growth.

The green plant stands out in the hellscape

forever growing from the past struggles.

The plant flourishes through the surrounding darkness 

brought upon by the hateful entity.

The growing plant has a conscience.

It knows that as long as it’s protected,

it can still grow to its full potential.
