THIS ORGANISM



seething breathing living in peace    
 feeling fury  fighting to live
  growing knowing  showing your naked heart
 this organism  breathing 
concrete clawing  steel eyed 
 drawing real lines  across the sky 
   tracing  erasing  vaporous  convulsions 
  facing construction  erection  demolition  inhaling 
 control organized realized  faith in humankind 
trust in science  depending  on nature's totality 
 exhaling  burning  fuming  seeking  finding
   balance  losing it  choosing it  using it
  breathing in   this physical addiction  to Godhood
 breathing out  psychological trickery  self denial  delusion intrusion  collusion  confusion  movement 
 stillness  crowded solitude  comfort in togetherness 
   alone to the bone  on the phone  boiling 
  evaporating  hating  loving  feeling nothing 
 caught up in this  slow motion  explosion
this breathing  expanding  retracting  organism 
 flying into the unknown  known  blind only 
  to find  familiar strangeness  sprouting
   everywhere  asphalt cracking  in turbulence
  serenity  chaos  calculating  luck  chance
 taking giving  choosing  or not  to believe
