a leaf falls to the ground
without a sound
so too does a tree with
no one around...
we must be there to hear
we must be there to understand
humans though we are
we are not omnipresent,
minutes before or after
seconds or hours
space advance time around
our existence - over which
we have no controls...
we rage against the physics
of it all, no knowledge
left undisturbed... we defend
our place in it all even when
its terms are confusing.
