supersonic evolution
when you tear
at the flesh
do both ears ring
in a canine kind of
frequency
after the feast
your heart rate slows
breathing shallowly
giving way to other senses
this earth talks
probably way too much
probably because
so few listen
the river did not always
meet the road
—natural bridges
evolving over time
