We meet Nature in flash seconds: a blur
And so our Hearts fall out of synch with Love.
Oh you! Dark Beauty, will you cockles stir?
We don't need nudges, we need a hard shove!
Or the midnight stars will be flattened,
Obscured by city lit subconscious waves–
Concave humanity will be fattened:
Lost to the mentality of blind slaves.
Break open your luster and spill it out
Remind us of what we are giving up,
Shake, rattle, and roll to destroy our doubt
Relinquish the contents of the Earth's cup,
For if we do not value springtime's Gifts
We may incur unavoidable rifts.
--Stephen Martin, 3/29/19
