Thistles Tom Sharp

The prince doesn’t care about his mother. He’s let thistles grow up the wall to cover the window of his private room where he nurtures ugly secrets. His mother might have them removed but it would draw attention to her disgrace.

墙有茨 诗经

墙有茨，不可埽也。 中冓之言，不可道也。 所可道也，言之丑也。 墙有茨，不可襄也。 中冓之言，不可详也。 所可详也，言之长也。 墙有茨，不可束也。 中冓之言，不可读也。 所可读也，言之辱也。
