Greed And Wreckage

An infant is brought into being,crafted out of earthly elements Out of soil,out of water, breathing air moment after moment. Nerves get nourished,strength is acquired as blood circulates through veins The sheer love of her as nature gifts the first glimpse of consciousness. Slowly things transform as seed sprouts into a towering tree As the muscles are flexed,chest spreads wider and will is free. Contained with posessions hedonistic desire hinging on self worth The piled up matter of earthly elements absurdly tries to conquer the earth.
