My Latest Poetic Effort

existence

i would like to watch a stream descend
its babbling course between mountains
before ever a human eye was in a head
and whether you choose the book of ge
nesis or darwin as your text surely the
re was such a time in history for no dou
bt the inanimate came first either way.
secondly to hear the first bird clear its
throat and sing would be nice and whe
ther you believe in god or not it is just a
nother way of saying that being around
when existence started happening woul
d be something i am totally interested in.
