I watched you struggling In my manicured lawn, And was overcome with remorse, And irony. For we are very much alike. Both invasive, both destructive, Both unstoppable. The only difference: I am aware of what I am. And you, Are just a bug. Now half broken, but determined To hold on. I hit you with the rock again.

I watched you struggling In my manicured lawn, And was overcome with remorse, And irony. For we are very much alike. Both invasive, both destructive, Both unstoppable. The only difference: I am aware of what I am. And you, Are just a bug. Now half broken, but determined To hold on. I hit you with the rock again.
