a sinister plan

these are all
greater parts of
a sinister plan
biding time nature
will strike
the allure of light
literally stemming from within
as if to capture what is truly
important for its existence
sitting in darkness
without eyes
or a spine
or nothing
just sticky lines
and survival
and a (not really) brain stuck on
just a couple of functions
just a matter of
getting the catch
consuming it in whatever
weird sickly unhuman manner
it decides.

that’s really gross.

yeah dude
limestone LIMESTONE
giving them prosperity

as if they could ever
understand its titanic
endless growth through time
through the power of rain
water dissolving the world
trees stem in deep
rivers going down
seeming to disappear
in dark
where they will ultimately meet
resistance and decide
to just erode.
