Builders in the house next door
have been destroying now for weeks
a mature garden torn to pieces
every day it speaks
out to those transgressors
but nobody can hear
dried stalks hanging off the ground
it is really clear
how energy is relevant
a bold green shoot I see
forcing itself from dried old stick
such excitability
i called the workman over
the impressionable affair
was happening so quietly
few knew that it was there
clearly it was suffering
Springs resonance abounds
for it a waking nightmare
all the violent sounds
rubble every which way
dust and dirt and pain
a martyr gently pushing forth
and living once again
the builder said its had it
we are going to tear it down
mother Nature labours long
in every flipping town
and human eyes unseeing
of the energy below
concealed by rock and plaster
but endeavouring to grow.
