We even turned the plants to sport
Growing rosemary for the opulence of the statement
Very soon we’ll use the air for a carrot and turn it into a sword
More charm than a boxing glove
Take me to the last century where we used
Horse and carriage and
Pomegranate could have earned a marriage
I’ll tell them about golden cereal
And grapes from Taiwan
And all the eventually’s
That held on to wars
On tv as I run on the treadmill
Being chased by a younger version
Of myself
Out of breath to tears
