SRl LLl - The Caterpillar and The Cabbage

As dawn sets upon the sprouting cabbage,
There is a hoard of hungry caterpillar,
preying on the innocent greens.

Gardener, please don't plant there,
For the cabbage knows no better,
Than to resurge and resprout once again.

The cabbage spring up only to be eaten,
Violated and ripped of their innocuousness,
It is their nature to give the gift of nourishing food.

Planter, please give the cabbage a new growing ground,
where they can grow purely,
in their natural form.

The earth infested by these green predators must be left,
never to be used again,
for you planted there knowing they tore into the cultivation of pure life.
