Creaturehood
Fully embraced creaturehood-
I throw off the shackles of man
Those inching forward gripping hands
I am pristine, each vertebrae notch
Nerves flow, aligning axis of earth
The sound of wind enters profound
i stand forthright, the creature I am
Summoning gargoyle strength
The lion of the sun untapped
Chopping wood, furnishing flowers
nature caressed knows no hours
My jaw finally rests and sets- an achievement!
Solidity of creatures nested among others
Birds and pollen, rocks and wood
Man relinquishes all power
As i sink into creaturehood
