CATCHING UP (Mr Moses and Mr Gates)

The more they take
     and do not make
 an adequate contribution,
 the more what they owe
 shadows them as they go
 to inevitable retribution.
 

    

(The more they know
  the more they owe.
     Is their Way In
     your Way Out?)

"LOVE THOU THE ROSE BUT LEAVE IT ON ITS STEM"

How odd that humans

choose to hide their sex

with clothes they have derived from plants

and so disguise them.

And yet they cut from plants their sex

(which they call flowers)
and stick them in rose bowls and vases,
put them on show
and highly prize them!
