swamp glory


 

fickle crickets:

serenading sirens

of retreat, as chartreuse digits

creep dark alley swamps;

hanging jungle themes invade

quiet dens perpetuated by

creation’s wet glory...croaking:

ancestral tales of grandeur.

 

mammal sigils:

evoking tootling

trespassers of environmental legacy;

nature redeeming medicines

sustaining miracles of light...EPA

earth.provides.assistance:

yet mankind defers pollution-free

toxic-free lakes of life.

 

scatter kingdom:

encroaching breaths spew

poisonous darts of entitlement

never biblically enforced;

gather eggs of free-will, lay deep

in vined elegance towering

beneath second-heaven despisers

of extant species.
