LOL. This is so going to be me. I still have a 3000 word assignment to complete...
Othello, Act 4, scene 2
(original photograph by GilG Photo)
A blade of grass
is a blade of grass
to the universe,
but to us
it can be so much more:
A memory of childhood,
a symbol of heroism.
an allegory of the Great Fall,
a simile to describe a feeling of loneliness.
The imagination of the human consciousness
amazes me
and makes me think
maybe the universe should look at that blade of grass
in a different light.
