Poem: Don’t you see it, all? Look, look at the outrageous gifts dropped at your feet warm sunlight, birdsong, and gentle rain trees laden with fruit balancing the sweet with bitter Your nature hums with wholeness yet you pull away grab the ax and dismember your heart from your will and your body from your love Listen, listen hear the harmony? rooted, entwined, and vibrating with life There is no need to masticate metal breaking your teeth Don’t you see? that golden apple will never feed you
