Dear Man Lee, So this is how it’s supposed to go: I eat the fruit of the seeds I sow, And permit the weeds to grow and grow. But can’t I take a moment to trim All the excess fat and stretched out skin Of the extra leaves hung on the limbs? Can’t you see that I love my garden? That I worked so **** ******* hard in? Excuse my French I didn’t mean it. So you see there’s just isn’t room For a baby in this garden’s womb Doomed to unnatural growth and acrid fume. So its not that I don’t desire To feed and care for my young flower, I just forget, but not due to ire. All of the world’s love I give to thee Just don’t expect anymore from me. Mother
