Our Roots
Leopards never change their spots.
the roots
which we grew from
are cemented into
our patterns
of growth
that we pursue
throughout this life
and the next,
if we keep the same
roots as the first life.
we cannot escape
where we came from
where we find ourselves when
we think of where we started.
we should not
we cannot
yet those who are not content
with the flaws that come with
their roots,
try to change,
forgetting that
Leopards never change their spots.
