earth note 393

concrete ribbon
weaves around the mountains
once sacred

geese are returning
for another trauma
season

there are still brownfields
awaiting wildflowers
if the well stays wet
     though the poison
     is another story

if i'm repeating myself
it's only out of habit
like the sun arcs
even without shadows
or reflections to record it

ego now replaces light
