Long blades
Swirling in loping circles
Undeterred
Come alive
Without water
To stop the commotion
of standing still
Pointless
In a barren landscape
Oddity
Among the fecundity
With photos
To commemorate
How quaint
a rolling ball of death
seemed
A boy took aim at the tumbleweed
with his slingshot
but his mother hurried him
onward
to pick out a suit that
he would outgrow within a year
Rolling past
the barrier of entrance
with no memory
of where it came from
or how to stop it
Swirling in loping circles
Undeterred
Come alive
Without water
To stop the commotion
of standing still
Pointless
In a barren landscape
Oddity
Among the fecundity
With photos
To commemorate
How quaint
a rolling ball of death
seemed
A boy took aim at the tumbleweed
with his slingshot
but his mother hurried him
onward
to pick out a suit that
he would outgrow within a year
Rolling past
the barrier of entrance
with no memory
of where it came from
