CREEPING GREEN.........poetry train car........



Progression unchecked
Choking out telephone poles
Trees and brazen plants
Too presumptuous to get out of the way
The South yielded to the unending creep
If only i had a car that runs on Kudzu
I did hear it makes a tasty salad though

I've heard a lot of jokes about Kudzu. Never seen any of the stuff, as far as I can remember. The picture tells me not all the jokes were just jokes.

Lisa - kudzu is the deep south's version of the blob. not kidding.

Probably the car was clear two days before the photo...

'The South yielded to the unending creep'
So THAT'S what drove old Dixie down.

I actually think it's a good idea. Powered by Kudzu.

Heck, it might begin to sort of maybe control the stuff.

How come I've never hear of Kudzu before this very moment??
And Stak, if you didn't knew, telephone pole won't get out of your way!!
