Venus Fly Traps
Starting to growin spring
Weeds spreading through
Painting yore
Through the frames
Past the drought
Past the depths of time
Winter’s gone
So why, do you grow, from the vine I chose to plough?
Why, can’t I take control, over my core?
Why can’t I feel normal?
Why can’t Iet you go?
Seeds are past through generations, I don’t want to let it flow
Did our ancestors not know how fast they could grow?
Beyond their seasons
You’ll see them sprout
In any soil
Through any grout
Ensnared by the petals which have become convolved
Hypnotised by the secretion of nectar; it’s evolved!
It grows on the minds that get lured and dissolved
It’s hard to walk around the floor
covered in sticky oil
Surely everyone can see
The stains of juice on my suede
Turn me into an absentee
Drain my empathy
The bastard can’t stay here
He’s bound to sough
Inchoate plans of his foes
With flesh ripped by sticks and spoons
Gracefully vile and hewn
Anguish from head to toe
After the tempest there’s no glow
Zen as a rock
Breathing in and out real slow
I’m trying to take back control
