1.
A tire-borne seed
falls to the oily ground.
Green leaves find their way.
2.
No bright without dark
no yellow without decay
no hope without grime.
3.
Unless this seeds falls
to the ground and dies, it will
not live. So must I.
4.
It struggles for life!
Valve covers and drive shafts trap
the sticky green leaves.
5.
I need not protect
from a throwaway culture
this resilient plant.
6.
Cast-aside car parts
frame the radiant petals.
None need my guidance.
7.
Name it sunflower.
Assign it a color scheme.
You lose its life force.
