安らかに眠るKishida Toshiko

 

flowers do not run away…

to grow beautiful, healthy plants

try to appreciate

the feeling of being one

set out trellises in ways

that nurtures and promotes growth

 

to produce magnificent blooms

imagine to be the flower

 

yet what encourages gardeners

to cause their flowers to suffer?

 

Is it the promise of profit/heaven

that leads to cruelty of flowers

rather than tenderly?

a truly unfortunate, pitiful reason

this must be for the flowers

who must suffer, and…for what…

 

To be equally yolked

 

may make convenience

but convenience in this life

does not mean better

 

 

-$15,000 in debt

 

what’s honorable?

pay what’s owed… despite interest

please give me some time

    Love the idea of cruelty to flowers. For years I have pushed the idea that plants as life forms deserve the same dignity as animals and in animals I include man although I think he ranks rather far down the scale. A good read Demar
