Devastating crystal dew

It is rare that crystals

will trail down the mountains,

the valleys, the hills, and the caverns

of mine from a place of sight


A Buttercup that has been told

to SUCK IT UP

becomes unwilling to release

the dew that gathers within

it's delicate petals


Yet as the crystal dew is kept trapped

It accumulates till

sight is blurred and

petals strain


So plentiful is the crystal dew

that it shreds tired petals

and floods all in its path


One must wonder that had

Crystal flowed often in gentle streams

Or the Buttercup told to let it out

One must wonder if

Perhaps the consequences

Would not have been so
