Writer's Statement: N/A
my dad overwaters his plants
they turn mushy and brown after a while
he’s forgetful,
my mom says
but I don’t think that’s true
I think he doesn’t know when to stop giving.
he puts all of his love into those plants
into caring tenderly for them
watching them intently,
even overbearing at times
caring for them like his children
I hope I don’t turn mushy and brown too
