Parable of the Weed (Revision 2)
#3
Thanks Billy, yeah if I had weed in mind instead of a different type of weed the last line wouldn't work. My parents were usually further down the distibution cycle when I was growing up (milk came from a carton and weed came from a bong)--how naive.

Best,

Todd

it made struggle to get a handle on it.

i loved the 2nd couple but the 1st felt off. it read well but to see october and spring soil in the same couplet made me do a double take.

my final thought was that normally weed is grown indoors with heat lamps and nutrients. through a 12 week cycle.

it may be that i'm the only one who'll have these thought because drugs were a major part of my upbringing and background when i was younger.

outdoor plants are stringy and a lot less potent.
