It's been proven, humans are life and animals as well and doesn't Mother Nature have Her instincts too? Our pulse aligns with Her and, too, the mountains which through centuries slither crests along the landscape we went and claimed as our own. But still she has Her skies and seas, though tainted with our fleets of rock and steel sinking aimless into. And where are we in all this? Situated on a rock, Her earth for a time flowing over and now the tide's receding to our sidewalks. We blew holes into Her mountains for them and they didn't tickle; oil was spilled into Her seas and smoke into Her skies; She's into fight or flight and She's not going anywhere, are we?
