flesh flowers
by jeremy cannon
What is living shall mesh with that of the unliving.
What takes away will soon be that of the giving.
What is dying will be that of which has life.
What has will be that of which has been bribed.
What cries will be that of which dehydrates.
What is impaired in a wheelchair will be that of which skates.
What is planted will be that of which has been grown.
What is healthy shall be that of which that will moan.
What is gray will be separated into black & white.
What is correct is wrong, what is incorrect will be right.
Whatever the scenarios and the situations might be,
you may notice the comparison slightly.
Those of which were one thing in time,
will become its opposite through the thoughts of the mind.
The crime entwined with this rhyme is undefined,
of why a world so unkind can only obscurely shine.
When what's quiet will shout, what's in will be out.
These rays of sunshine will shower an enlightening power,
upon the socially towered set of flesh flowers.
