Analysis of Bury Me
Bury me beneath the
So my face will come
out on all it's leaves.
I don't know why
The Hedgebushes come to mind
But it just passed by
My poor burnt out mind.
I hate the Hedgebushes
You see they have Spiders,
Bugs and Bees
And they are always after me .
Hedgebushes are a place
where the Snakes curl
And hide to sleep
The bushes just make me weep.
