Consumption


The swaying of the trees Puts me at ease In the midst of anger The strong wind against my face Brings me to reality Realities of the world In peace is sorrow and in sorrow is resentment I follow my own grass path Ignoring paths put out to skew me Little water to quench my thirst Taken away by greed I am surrounded by earth But where is it? Destroyed for profit Destroyed by technology How can we be one when destruction consumes us?
