Black Forest Matters
In the black forest matter without mind
Falls by its own weight between each drop
Rain happens that way when branches break
Collapsed by forces of nature to the ground
Sunshine is a mistake
Where light penetration is not
Remains sealed inside without escape
Below a canopy of green shrouded in mystery
Crisp leaves there to catch the woods one and all
Forest creatures sink into oblivion at the sound
Into puddles fit for drinking without clouds
In the black forest matter without mind survives
Falls by its own weight for another days design
