Rapacious By Nature?

by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen — Read all 1,670 poems by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen

Monday, March 17, 2008

 I am of the rapaciousness nature
To devour whatever I see!
Not totally, that would be
Deadly! But, bit by bit.... 

I’ve survived my rapacious nature,
Still vultured by gasps decree.
Not fully, that wouldn’t be
Kosher. Except, bit by bit…

I continue rapacious nature,
Still preying on what I see,
Not caring, mostly fully, that would be
Lying. Bit by bit…

I live worlds’ rapaciousness nature,
Waiting for last gasp perceived.
I’d be other-natured, if would would
Keep stop falling, bit by bit…

Great insight here, Erin. Well done. It brings to mind the balance between humanity and the other components of biomass. As the weight shifts far to humanity's advantage, your poem reminds us how different humans are from the remainder, and why the change this represents has such leverage on what was previously a balanced ecology.
Best regards,
Leland
