planted firmly in the ground
The pre-existing condition of consciousness
doesn't prevent man-made
rages.
We masquerade in Nature
in a
ready-made wreckless
oblivion
always tempering
self-induced
levels of madness,
as we whisk away awareness
forgetting where we are.
We are somewhere
spatial
planted firmly on Earth.
Held down
by gravity onto the ground.
We
are like
planted, blooming flowers--
blooming out of chaos.
