There's To Many People On The Planet And I Might Be One of Them
Mint growing in the garden
it's cool, for a time
and then it strangles
everything else in it's
path until it is the only
thing that will thrive.
Humans are mint
we will choke the life
out of everything
eventually
because
that's what we do
what will stop us?
Cancer?

Very interesting. As a person who works in a cancer hospital, I know the patient doesn't peoccupy themselves with sweating the small stuff. In today's world, we as humans get into things that are so stupid and small like arguing or killing for a parking spot. That tells me, we are too far gone.

I grow my mint in an old chimney pot that holds it.! At least we humans are still contained on the earth (For now)
