song 88 "weeds"

Look at that! Or listen if you prefer. It's been a while since I've done one that wasn't an attempt to be funny or painfully literal.


I'm not waiting until it gets bad again
like last time
The weather's changing just like it does each year
as always
I pull these weeds up
and try to get all of the roots
unbroken


But every year they grow back
in the Spring
Is there more-than last time
I think so-there must be
or at least it's harder-for me to do


It might be that I'm older
and I'm the one who's changed


Spring is here again
I'll pull the weeds 
tomorrow
just like last year my intentions are good
yet I fail
