Out damn spot, you have killed the rose
Regicide evident in its queenly death throes
Black spot that appears on yellow leaves
Oh heinous act, a cowardly gardener's hand grieves
An infection turned insurrection the plant does surround
Leaves armies fallen ghosts callen from the ground
An invasion by a foreign force
Before me death and decay take their course
Birnam woods or burn them woods did they say?
Get some fertilizer, Dung in same hill today

- Comment from author about the poem: One must know Macbeth to appreciate this one and little rose gardening would help as well. Black spot a common fungal rose disease where all damaged leaves and wood must be removed to control it
