like those wild weeds
we are persistent beings
such inevitable outgrowth
from this veil of sophistication
trampled or crushed or be uprooted
we get up and grow
we arise with time, over time
so elegantly rooted
our seeds of resolve in the womb of earth
through the skin we warriors emerge
impenetrable armor of experience strapped
honey laced swords shine
carving into the flesh of those who demur
a sculptured heart resides
beside the one they lived with so far
we beat in rhythm, but have no life to pump
a garland of beauty beautified with frivolous touch
making our space as they melt
we declare a war of love
with passion, with obsession
to strive and live on our terms
a heart to beat so for us, if not theirs
yes, we love
