Outside
The world is sleeping,
   humanity hides its face
   while the pale concrete houses
 
 Trap in light.
 
  Stave off darkness.
     It is here that nature unfurls herself 
   revealing her dark green glory....
  
 
     As the animals come alive
 
    they move as shadows
 
   and loss all constricting forms.
 
 The blades of grass morph into the wind
    and begin those siren dances which chase our dreams -
 
 
 You can hear them whispering.
   Soaking the moonlight into their veins.......
  
 And they say we are conquering nature. Humans?
 (We have run away). 
 
 Too small against the infinity the earth embraces, too easily snuffed out...
