My brothers have all been taken from me,
My sisters, eaten by metal teeth.
Only my cousin remains,
Just out of reach sending me silent support.
We both know whats coming.
For we are not loved by any but the bugs.
People care less for us then the grass.
I can here the monster in the distance,
Ready to gobble me down along with my cousin.
We are the last meal and victory for it.
To humans we are weeds.
What are we to you?
