ECOLOGY OF MAN



YOU’LL ONLY MISS IT WHEN IT’S DEAD
In the micro space
between the meeting of
earth and water,
fire and ice,
is the foundation
of all that has come to pass
since the earth violently formed;
then grew to habitat.
Creatures crawled out of the sea
to come to know
or created by a non-human being,
to make a garden grow
either or,
matters little the truth anymore
of the great destroyers formation
in that space between elemental places.

  2. This poem I don't understand. Do you mean original intent doesn't matter? And what elemental places?

  3. Creatures crawled out of the sea, then some went back into the sea. maybe this one creature will crawl out into space.

  5. The great destroyers formation..wow...I had to take an extra gulp of coffee on that one. And in the end...it will all be a moot point. That is the most sad part of all.

  6. Great destroyers formations? Way over this squirrel's grey matter.

  7. "in that space between elemental places." Not 'Spaces' interesting choice.
    Perhaps it's cause I just was awed by watching COSMOS, but the grandeur of your powerful words, and the subject matter, carry a lot of weight in my inner eye and heart at this moment, Bro.

  8. All righty then, I'm here now, and I'm grateful the dinosaurs took the comet attack on our behalf, and helped to create that which we now reap...
