Flowers

"When a flower doesn't bloom,

you fix the environment in which it grows.

Not the flower."

the caterpillars spoke not of her beauty, but of her weirdness.

They wanted her to change back into what she always had been.

But she had wings.”

so they do great things."

"Because we have veiwed other animals through the myopic lens of our self-importance,

we have misperceived who and what they are.

Because we have repeated our ignorance, one to the other, we have mistaken it for knowledge."

"Bugs are not going to inherit the earth.

They own it now.

So we might as well make peace with our landlord."

Desert Flower

The desert cactus,

Has thorns and blooming flowers,

Beauty comes with pain.
