let them be as flowers,
always watered, fed, guarded, admired,
but harnessed to a pot of dirt.

i’d rather be a tall, ugly weed,
clinging on cliffs, like an eagle
wind-wavering above high, jagged rocks.

to have broken through the surface of stone,
to live, to feel exposed to the madness
of the vast, eternal sky.
to be swayed by the breezes of an ancient sea,
carrying my soul, my seed, beyond the mountains of time
or into the abyss of the bizarre.

i’d rather be unseen, and if
then shunned by everone,
than to be a pleasant-smelling flower,
growing in clusters in the fertile valley,
where they’re praised, handled and plucked
by greedy, human hands.

i’d rather smell of musty, green stench
than of sweet, fragrant lilac.
if i could stand alone, strong and free,
i’d rather be a tall, ugly weed.
