Look how my garden grows nations from all around impose and plant their native flowers in my sand, showing off their heritage for future generations to understand. Couldn't help thinking, how could it be these were the people we used to hate, but their artisianal work we now emulate. what was it we didn't see? Look how the garden took shape in a world where we often rape. To keep free of the ultimate bomb we found another human bond, inviting nation states to compete with horicultural displays of sacred feats. These people are from far off lands they plant their flowers in our sands how easy it was to abominate now it's their green thumb we emulate. My mind reels at the thought of the loss, human lives were tossed between the times of scarcity and abundance and in the constant search for substance. Now,look how my garden grew nations from all around we slew; we timed this after sacrificing the young and built monuments for us to shed tears on, planting gardens in their record where books and trinkets are always sold.
