Cut & Paste

Transplanting

Cutting and pasting,

That is the order of the day!

We transplant beautiful carpet grass,

We paste pitchers on plants,

Creating, thus, pitcher plants,

We cut the rights

And freedom

Of one and all

And paste our will

On the blank space

Created by someone's fall.

Will this land accept the carpets of grass?

Will the scorching heat

Spare the plastic pots?

Will the hot summer

And perennial lack of water

Spare these cuts and pastes?

Will the erratic power supply

Not spoil the system at all?

Let the grass grow on its own,

Let us just trim it

And water it!

Let there be beautiful

Chandeliers

If at all we want

Aesthetic beauty!

Hurry will spoil things

Arrogance will kill the souls

Tapes on lips

Won't serve any purpose!

Well, everything has an end!

We shall wait

For the real spring,

And chirping of birds,

And fountains of water

And a calm and cool

Evening

To relax

And get rid of

Stress and tension!
