Everywhere your drishti reaches,
Green and pink
And rich
With life.
Growing, verdant,
Vermicultured,
Verily
So.
As i stick to everything
And everything sticks to me
In skin,
In memory.
Even this hawk, or falcon,
Distantly swooping
For prey
Which i must appear to be
To her.
Help, help.
Nine one one--
Help me:
The sky is pale blue and wider
Than the widest lens
Could capture.
Is this not an emergency?
Is it not at least an urgency?
