Do It Now

( greenprophet )

The simple problem of humanity

is that we've built a world

- our perfect world -

so well, it hides the world

whose very imperfections whisper

the secrets we all seek.

With each inhale,

with each exhale,

with each slumbering purr and fart,

our earth speaks

the mystery of her own creation,

and our creation too.

We fumbling creator creatures,

so self important in our mimicking

of the sublime voice that breathed us into life,

and 

in our petty perfecting of this temporary place

this material space

built with expendable ingredients,

that we don't see the aging mechanisms behind the curtain

on the stage of our pursuits.

Be brave now,

dear friends,

live simply on our planet home.

Now,

dear friends

Now.
