The ivies

I had such high hopes

You can’t kill them 

They said 

They can deal with anything 

I value my privacy 

I also avoid the light

A perfect option 

Apparently 

They never did quite invade

Like they promised they would

Like so many promises

I’m left short changed 

They’re still here

Dry 

Not quite dead

Browning while still green in places

Like our planet 

Actually

What about what you said?

You can’t kill them

They can deal with anything 

Now look
