Art from the Field

by Jaison Lewis

Upon my contemplation man tries 2 dominate
this nation
by trav'lin' around in his selfless sensation
ignorant of his separation
the only parents known to be r ones from birth
can we not see
our mother is the earth providin' us 2 be
our father is time upon our death we will see as
we generate back 2 energy
the cycle of life will go on 2 be
even if the ignorant man can not see
trav'lin 2 distant worlds in order 2 market the
synergy
he will always be lost in the black hole of
energy
not appreciatin' the ocean land and the sea,
the stars moon and sun r connected 2 me
the trees do grow just like me sometimes the
rock is as stubborn as we be
although we may forget our water and its
function 2 be upon drink touch and taste
re-birth regeneration is takin' place
