Breathing Home

Breathing Home - 14.3.2013

Grow something that heals
But cut it down at a command
Shed skin, shed emotion
All for all things green.
Amongst the birds and the bees
Calling home amongst the trees
Breaking down into what we need
Decomposing, compost
Biomass is gained but quickly lost

Carve the moment into the bark of trees
Carve a picture of society
Immortalize this moment for you and me
In fire, with the blade
For the greenery below to grow
When life is over and we have left forever
Cut off our markings and let it grow
From the soil and ash
Barren, waiting
A canvas to be painted
Barren, waiting
Empty.
Devoid of moving life.
