Proof

Proof

A Poem by Desert Dreamer
"

Love and civilization...

"

turbulent love

claws that grasp

frail living heart

converted into machine

locked in a cage

 

you ask for proof

why is a living beating heart

better than a manufactured one?

 

I don't need your questions

theories

science

religion

 

my answer

is to run far away

far from your wrath

 

I taste freedom

feel the ground

on my bare feet

touch the sky

flee to sacred places

 

perception

is freedom

I won't play your game

or live by your rules

I trust my senses

 

I'll take my frail heart

into the wilderness

grow powerful

return to your paved over land

consume your civilization made of madness

I will bring back the wildness

you tried to control

Love this cause this certainly is how I feel... I don't need an organized religion to tell me how to love God and I don't need "society" to tell me what to like.

is freedom
I won't play your game
or live by your rules
I trust my senses

Awesome verse.

A strong, determined voice planted in rebirth and craving the healing abundance modern society is constantly turning its back on-- nature. Loved this!

i don't think your heart is so frail...you have a great deal of what i call 'totem'...

I like the image of the wilderness that you paint and how we all could use a little real nature kind of rest and relaxation.
