Making friends with maggots,
Unusual you might say.
I once saw an apple;
Fall from it’s tree one day
A few days past I looked again,
The apple’s on the floor,
A solitary maggot
Had chewed it to the core.
One day I might fall down
From my family tree,
So I make friends with maggots
Don’t want them eating me!

This poem shows an interesting perspective---I like the way you think outside the box. Made me smile.

| i thought "white man's guit" was sickly and patronising, i thought "help me-somebody please help me" was overrated but i've got to say this is a great metaphor. liked this one a lot. |
