as if earth...
as
as if earth
was
is
will be
modeled after
a hollow gesture
a split melon
cored
cracked
as organisms
teemingly thrive
unseen
upon the surface
big flying creatures
as if
inter-dimensionally
surround
landing
at will
upon the surface
millions
of years
previous
as a glimpse
smart men
and women
gather round
the lectures
the caulk boards
the AV tech
of calculations
trying
very hard
to fit the language
into the tube
of knowledge
that feeds
the masses
fabricating
in worship
to design
art
music
mathematics
STEM logic
now big money
entry
all in the name
of progressive
sustainable
ability
to coexist
countries
communities
neighbors
and the like
still fighting
for the right
to dictate
flourish
simply survive
packaging
branding
as the cattle
we all are
injected
herded
corralled
w/the ease
of the masters
grace
and discipline
w/pure distain
as dirty money
to be had
in their only
purpose
much like myself
in the ignorance
of what is seen
digested
regurgitated
as a mother's
feeding
forty acres
and a broken
mule
freed
by my own
choice
decades
of hard knocks
of both
good and bad
some jail
no prison
many many
mistakes
even still
each day
an opportunity
of learning
from fuckups
most powerful
my own
deserted
private field
of reproduction
as words
images
ideas
salty
w/too much
spice often
as w/age
the buds of taste
whither
as calloused
hands
only
of a working man
can do
in the scars
of daily labor
no degree
no diploma
no award
in praise
false pretense
offers little
competition
in excellence
made easy
second nature
to mature
in such craft
well beyond
leisure
and play
find your niche
regardless
of ridicule
as if
earth
was
is
will be
