What I wouldn’t give for a camera
to freeze this moment
forever
and always.
To show people the richness of the soil;
how it clumps together -
dark,
shifting,
impressions left upon grounddigging deep into the earthwalk on the narrow pathjourney alone, deep in the woodswarm air fills my lungs deep breath inand out
To make nature my own
Is to kill it
Just to take it home
We cut it off from its life source
So it can wither in a day
The graceful creature, proud and strong
Suffocate it in circles
