earth

[droqen]

the bunny wanted to sleep
underground where roots connect sprawling
dreamy trees to the sea
earth.

[droqen]

it held on tight weaponry
honed steel in the name
cut drew blood:

forgiveness, penance. innocence, peace

[droqen]

forgiveness for getting love.

[droqen]

penance for needing without providing
protection.

innocence in the truest sense
and the weakest, ignorance.

peace in wartime.

peace on earth.

[droqen]

the bunny only had to stay
underground where bunnies stay
free to stay.

[droqen]

the bunny drew a blade
instead, you know
the rest.
