Parable of the Soils

It’s got a call like gravity
tugging deep inside us.
anchoring one to the ground and centered
It’s a tether to reality
the key to combating anxiety —
Like the taproot,
if left unchecked
what once was sweet
soured.
Sucking up all bad
killing man like flowers.
It matters where ones planted
A parable of soils explains,
our roots affect growth.
Like friends committing treason
and home infested with weeds
suffocate, killing us out from underneath.
Never soaring like a bird with clipped wings.
