the sky is the sky
and the trees are the trees
flowers don't mean very much
one day you'll be dead
so you won't be able to read this poem
or do anything at all
except be dead
you were born
you read this poem
you died
flowers still don't mean very much
and the trees are the trees
flowers don't mean very much
one day you'll be dead
so you won't be able to read this poem
or do anything at all
except be dead
you were born
you read this poem
you died
flowers still don't mean very much
"We believe that we invent symbols. The truth is that they invent us; we are their creatures, shaped by their hard, defining edges." - Gene Wolfe
