I see it in the asphalt bumps and sidewalk cracks.
Earth, she don't want to be flat.
Smooth her out with concrete blocks
She'll move and turn without a thought.
Spent most of her life clothed with tempestuous life.
This recent pavement trend leads to unwanted strife.
We build our cornered, straightened, flat, leveled space
upon a vibrant, living, rounded, moving place.
No, Earth, she don't want to be flat.
Full bodied, free flowing, seductress, she
scoffs at such mind conceited, power hungry, insincerity;
exposing our cracks in her restless slumber.
