the Cycle of Life

Janet Kuypers, 03/03/09

when my mother died
that’s when the forest fire started
and the whole forest burned down

i know, i know, the cycle of life
i get it
but since then i’ve collected plants
i can’t let things die
my office is like a rainforest
& these hanging growing creatures
have taken over my home

i know, i get it, the cycle of life
but now that she’s gone
i want to make sure
that everything lives
