Tug of War

Netashi

Leafs through the vine 

Bud - A compact growth on a plant that develops into a shoot, leaf, or flower.

  • Young seed on the ground what shall you become 

A tree a bush or maybe some fruit in this vast kingdom

  • Sprout your arms and make your mind bloom

What shall you give oxygen, apples, grapes, or shrooms

  • There is beauty and flaw in every plant whether it be scrapes or spit

For every rose has thorns that prick and every tree has vines that whip

  • I sow my poems in the ground like seeds and watch them grow 

Is art only art when seen or in the eyes of the beholder I’ll never know 

  • Artists are farmers making their bounty and satisfaction their blunder 

At night I ponder am I truly and artist or creating future ash and sooter 

  • Do I have a green thumb or am I a loser 

Am I an artist or just a poser

    Hey there, Theta. Been a while. Glad to see you still writing. I enjoyed the read. Some pretty heavy questions as well.
