Is a weed, a weed?
Or can it be
Something Beautiful

You, oh, you who fight so blindly
For Beauty
Are deaf, I tell you
to the strangled plea and desperate cry

emerging from The
Weeds those surrounding Weeds
draining her radiance out of
Jealousy, You Say

with Rage

But have you ever stopped to wonder that they
may
have just been
Gazing, admiring
Like you?

Is a weed a weed?
I think not,
I believe
They are blossoms too
