It's like one step forward and -1 back.
What if I broke the camel's back?
Am I a straw so brittle and weak?
White,unspoke; frail and meak.
A breeze slithers by the trees,
I go for a ride.
Through the autumn after noon,
and overcast skies.
I'm picked up and layed down,
now plants can grow.
Grass gets killed,
my brothers drowned so.
But when they are wet,
no longer brittle.
After all- we were all dead all along.
