The sound of soft breathing
I am air
movement unseen
inhaled breath
beneath the rushing
the coffee beans grinding
the imbuing traffic
I am lifted feet,
grime & dirt & dust,
our own conveniences of truths
polluting us
I am adding wings
to the mach speed of economy
class and jet stream smog
stirred not shaken
still forgettable
unseen...
great deforestations
exponentisl growing pains
industry ostracizing nature
murdering meek dolphins
(a new kind meat?)
Aaaahhhh!! Glaciers!
Where did the dream retreat
since inside the heart
such god-awful self defeat,
parasitic minds diseased
conceding to the deceit
the demeaning breath of cheats
business deals to steal whats free
our realestate / atmosphere's
rainfall drink / carbon mono - die - oxidized
they steal our health
with monopoly money
the currencies of ivory and krill
founded by invasion's fathers
on Capitol Hill...
And still I am here
the repetitive melody from mystery
few ever listen to notice me
the diminished bird
I am in cruel gilded cages unheard
that song, the high, the prayers
beseaching and begging
with great big sighs
in the lungs, quivering
Aurora / souls / hovering
summer wind-chimes' cool mirth
Christmas births delivering
new hearts upon this earth
in ribs / & eye / you're golden
spiritual worth
The invisible motion of these here lives
Absolute in the truths to matter
make it / our home / to last forever
for all and one / down to the letter
Life is beautiful...
(not invisible)
If & when the world's made all better...
