english not good me

i'm going to kill the garbage can
and a rock

because they are not
a tree
or an animal

because they are not
alive
they cannot reproduce
they cannot take in something
then make it into waste
they cannot adapt to their environment

and those are the three things science books say
it takes to be alive

so i can kill a garbage can
and i can kill a rock
