There are only roses in this park
Yeah so there were only roses in this park.
I heard about this in high school biology. Natural selection I think they call it.
But the people kept picking all the flowers, mainly roses, so the flowers that were pruned kept growing bigger and bigger each year.
And hardly anyone picked grass, maybe dogs ate it sometimes, so each year things turned to roses, like the trees, even the water when the ducks got jealous.
The people started to walk delicately to not step on them all, and all the gymnasts would hold lessons like how to pick a rose with your toes then grand battement it to your ear.
It was all roses till the local news broke a story.
The newscaster said something like “shit, there are thorns everywhere.”
So we killed the roses and now we only let them grow in a few corners.
