good for you, plants



do plants pray to get starve?
stealthily, none to whisper....thief thief thief thief
thief thief thief
thief thief
thief
was planting theft,

to set free oncemore
every human meekness-
appreciating
the delayed
'grant'.
do plants play prey to get starved, by proxy?
do matter to none of us.
