repressed desire
a seed under the asphalt of society
waiting for light, for nourishment,
for freedom to live and breathe
a seed, a hope
not alone
among other seeds
under the asphalt
a seed breaks through
a seed is weeded in the asphalt
but has broken through
more seeds see the break, the light
they mourn a seed
and in their anger
find the strength
to break through the asphalt
