Flower Garden

Potted plants and pretty flowers,

A vibrant array of color

Truly, they make for a beautiful display

A garden fit for royalty,

Or so it seems

The dirty secrets hidden beneath,

Buried deep in their soil

Where no mortal eyes can see

The wrathful thoughts within,

Brimming at their roots

Where no mortal hands can reach

The maggots crawling along,

Feasting on their parts, one by one,

Where no mortal hearts can feel

A gorgeous garden,

Its colorful residents perfectly arranged,

Not a flaw in sight,

Or so it seems
