Green Beans
would prefer to be swords,
each poised for a duel
with a knight
in vined armor.
The clanging of blades
nothing more than bean tapping bean.
Never cutting,
never causing harm.
The imagination of beans
hear too
the royal horses’
emerald whinnying.
each poised for a duel
with a knight
in vined armor.
The clanging of blades
nothing more than bean tapping bean.
Never cutting,
never causing harm.
The imagination of beans
hear too
the royal horses’
emerald whinnying.
