it keeps us grounded.it gives us weight.
we try to fight it.
but it's too late.
it spins us round
this earthbound ball.
we try to fight it.
it wins the fall.
in outerspace
it lets us go.
we can not find it.
we need it so.
down to earth we float.
we tried our wings.
we find that roots
are better things.
beautiful composition!
ReplyDeletejust "beautiful" is comment enough
ReplyDeleteI like this very much...the illustration works well with the poem.
ReplyDeletevery graphic...nice...funny how stong gravity is in that it keeps us planted but it isn't so strong that we can't momentarily escape it with a simple jump...
