I've got 3 plants
On my window sill
I used to only have one cactus
Which i barely watered
Stolen from some wedding
Whose bride and groom's marriage fractured long ago
But now my apparently mistreated cactus
Has had a baby
Asexually
I learnt that in biology
And now my mothering instincts have kicked in
I've started worrying about them
Waiting right before I go to bed to close the curtains
So it gets enough light
To store enough glucose
To survive the night
Then we had secret eid (like secret Santa)
So I've gained a pink flower
Which hasn't flowered
So I've replanted it to give it some space to grow
So now I have 3 specs of life
Amongst my Endless piles of books and written on paper
Susan, susan2 (it's a clone) and unnamed living out their life
Dependant totally on me
So hopefully this phase lasts long enough
So they survive for Susan 3 to come around
Notes:
Eh it's definetly not one of my best but I'm trying. 8 exams left. The notification said I could nominate this for the wattys but im not going to. I feel like this is more a rough sketchbook then a finished work. I'm trying. Hope the 1-5 people who read this are having a good week :)
