Oh Nature
“nature
is red
in tooth and claw”
or so i’ve read
those are not my words
oh how i
hope it
is she
who now
considers
herself
an embarrassment
to see the ground
no matter which way
or the view
by the wayside
yet unknown
wait for me then
for reasons even better
grounded images
even if its only
just the middle
