Big brother

closeup photo of a weed, with the hairs visible

When someone’s watching,
hair on the back of your neck
stands up, as does grass

Rebel

closeup photo of a flower

Kicking and screaming
breaking through closed circuitry
comes out a blossom

Nightly procession

photo of the full moon with a silhouette of trees

Holding up the moon
earth parades its better half
slicing through the dark

Impermissible

photo of a fenced off lush valley with a lake in the middle and blue skies

Controlled greenery
fenced off private property
blues in the distance

Waiting

Photo of a lush valley with a lot of cloud cover overhead.

Sat plump and pompous
pillow clouds over grasslands
chicken on her eggs
