Greener
"The grass is greener on the other side," they said
So I walked over, and switched places with the girl there
It was happy and dandy
Her grass was demulcent and sunkissed
It was indeed greener,
For the first five minutes, at least
First, her dirt had worms
And her grass was crawling with bugs
Mine had both.
In fact, her grass wasn't greener at all.
It was the same as mine!
Her grass had problems,
and so hence,
I prefer my familiar grass.
She preferred hers too.
