P.O.E.M

Stories begin,

genesis, survival and existence,

of beings, an ever-giving abode and all that stays within and beyond, in nurture or absolute negligence,

and they end,

going back into the matter they inhabited.

 

That brief space in between,

where we humans, a species that lived through unruly circumstances, but grew stronger in care,

can hold this tangible bond with our natural home, fulfilling and kind, like

mud on our bare hands- creation, the shade of a tree- comfort,

floors of earth inside our houses- connect and emotions laced in them all, experience;

that space is what we journey through,

to fill our surroundings and life itself with art, in breathing enclosures and open cocoons,

to be a collective that moves closer to our roots in empathy and sensible awareness, to truly be People Of Earth and Matter-

a poem that searches to portray the umbilical oneness in human and nature.
