december eighteenth

by Ava Blu


it's not for nothing that you wear your hair in pigtails and have leaves stuck to your face;
it's the final way of becoming Mother Nature and then choking on the breeze as the leaves fall off.

I guess there's no sense in hiding, right? That's the idea I got from this, and I could be completely wrong. Either way, this is great stuff.

Analogy of the simplicity suggested by pigtails and leaves on the face with Mother Nature. Second stanza indicates Mother Nature may not be so simple after all! Interesting balance.
