I know what they did to the water
and I'm ******
I see what they did to the forest
and I'm ******
They turned the Human Beings
into a disease
addicted to machines
shooting on their screens
The Illuminati Card Game is a thing
Pentagrams on city streets
in Universities.

U.S. Dept. of Forestry
put out fires and created Smokey
propaganda just for you.
Today we prescribe burns
so prairie plants can take turns.

Maybe today I could be
that little bit that nature needs
to be free.
To provide everything.
A lot of work was done before me
to set aside a piece of pathway
a research facility, a classroom, a farm
a nature preserve, a fortress.

fingers glide over my landscape
smoothing out the clods
loosening lumps lingering in my heart
cleansing clumps clinging to my soul
rain whispers over rolling shoulders
wind nestles under hugging hills
gentle lashes patter on the pillows
twinkling stars settle
a winking moon waxes on til morrow

joy to my family
peace to my enemy
strength to myself
my wisdom and my health

unkindness is tastelessness
the only way i’ll face this is
my long-term relationships
with compassion and patience
