These Gnarled Roots
Withered from time
Will forever control
Those shoots from reaching
The Shine.
Thick and stubborn
Taking everything of
Worth.
Pillaging the earth of
its fruit
All "in the name of the
Shoot".
We are told
The shoot can't be
A shoot
Without the
Root.
But what about
The "root" of
A problem?
So, little shoot
Chew on the bitter root.
Chew and
Survive.
