Day 18: even if

Post by DocCon » Thu Apr 18, 2019 2:35 pm

even if
it ends
tomorrow

hummingbirds
crumble Spring
stops dead
reverts becomes
unusable sap
sucks rather
than flows

DNA
bends folds mutilates
back into redacted
matter pre -
panspermia
the BANG
goes wuff
while light
destined tobe
all things
collapses and asks
why nothing
instead of
something 

Something
can be
done
right
now.

powerful images - crumbling hummingbirds, DNA retreating to the stars (my version as I don't have your poem in front of me), trees forming sap for naught... Makes me ponder... What would I do today if this were happening around me? Thanks for sharing
