Barked trees,
Stood on their thrones of hardness,
While mushy cactus
Stood with prickly threats,
And colored bandanas;
Searching the father
Of a culture
Which gave them stubby limbs
Irregardless of genetics.
A passionless existence,
Too poetic
To be regarded as anything
But a desolate scene,
While kings fall asleep
In a tomb of much appreciated fauna.
I dig the metaphors!! Excellent! I see a desert of dried up virtues...very beautiful.
