Cacti

can’t beat the cactus
it’s too prickly for fair fights
bad ass assassin

  

desert sands shifting
swirling endlessly around
saguaro cactus

  

there is beauty here
among the needles and pain
more than sufficient.

Ok folks, this was a decidedly un-Christmasy post, but the lowly cactus needed some love on this December day. Give it up for the cactus!
