where the wild flowers grow

Remedy,
disease.
My tongue and I are at war,
leave a message
at the beep.

Lawn mowers buzz
speaking to the grass.
I walk down a street, empty,
why can't we
just let it grow?

A garden scavenges
for moisture.
Whining with the wind,
because there's not enough rain.

Skipping stones upon
prosperous water..
I can no longer talk
to myself.

why, because people have to conform to
"what will harry next door think" if i leave my garden as is.....thats why
my sentiments exactly, i rather spend a day
in a field of dandelions than sit on a shelf
with a rose in a vase...............
