Vines
June 11, 2012
It irks her
when she sees the ignorance that bloom around her
like May flowers after April showers
as she is stuck in a forever growing field
without a sickle at hand
nor any way to get out of the tangle.
Not even the vexed air that she radiates
can kill of the tangled mass
of ignorant vines
surrounding her and isolating her
from all contact.
A challenge arises
to fight the world
on her own
without any back up
to watch her back.
And from an aerial view
the vines spell out,
“Welcome to life”
