Of Powers and Principalities
Life on a cellular and corporeal level seems to be
A relationship of complex interdependence
Where each living unit acknowledges a central theme
And concedes that theme to be more important than itself
This principle of functioning interdependence
Expresses the “will” of a conglomerate yet separate living organism
Should we assume this general principle stops with us
Merely because we no longer have a “safe” detached vantage point
