man of the earth

Post by saw » August 24th, 2021, 12:53 pm

scientific injections in veins of curiosity
radioactive carbon isotopes that see
hear, trees taking to trees
trees holding cellulose hands like lovers
it's the wood-wide-web

like chatting with a neighbor
over the back fence on a summer day
plants early warning system
alarm pheromones....
olfactory signals like smokeless chatter

curious non-english language
gases, liquids, solids
half lives ?
what does it all mean ?
how do I fit into these equations ?

I want to be a respected translator
I want to become fluid in nature
I want to become a universal green linguist.....
I need an outdoorsy syntax
I want to be a man of the earth
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism

trees call emergency session
plotting to save Earth

Pretty sure you have that covered!
Your love for the earth - the great mother- is beautiful

Water protectors unite
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
