summer
eve
the heat
observation :
the hummingbirds in flight
are small
like darting beetles
the beetles in flight
are large
like slow whapping hummingbirds
i am pulled
by my mulling
and a dose
of applauded nature :
it wasn't that long ago that the dragonfly
had the wingspan of an Andean Condor
and the menace of a military drone
it wasn't that long ago that a common houseplant
could provide refuge
for The Swiss Family Robinson
in the future
when the blue whale
and other sea monstrosities
are extinguished
could a wolf or polar bear
happily adorn
a fashionable businessman's breast pocket ?
in slumber nonsense
thought
summer eve
and the heat
i am a microbe and a behemoth
a comfort experience
