Fingernails That Shine Like Justice

I felt the unbearable urge to put my hands in the dirt today.


I went outside and plunged my fingers into the moist ground. It felt fantastic. I felt like a child as I dug a hole. I took a plant outside that had been previously dying, I believe the pot was too small. When I released it from it's capture I saw the roots all twisted into knots. I broke apart the long white tentacles and placed it into it's new home. I have a feeling it will still die. I just needed an excuse to plunge my hands into the earth.
