Concerto for blunt instrument

An irregular heartbeat from d.o. to you. Not like a daily kos, more like a sometime sloth. Fast relief from the symptoms of blogarrhea and predicated on the understanding that the world is not a stage for our actions, rather it is a living organism upon which we depend for our existence.

Welcome back

 


 

 

 "In the 1980s, researchers excavating a cave in the Judean Desert, in Israel, uncovered a seed that was subsequently dated to sometime between 993 and 1202 AD, making it approximately 1,000 years old. Testing of the seed suggested that it was still viable, so the research team planted and tended to it. A little while later, it sprouted. Now, 14 years later, the tree has grown to maturity.....The researchers have also found that the tree belongs to the genus Commiphora, which belongs to the same family as frankincense and myrrh."

 

While you were away trucks and chainsaws

were invented and used to clear the land 

without much thought or consideration with

fire that soon grew to consume whole forests

across the land now naked empty afraid 

back then you spread shade on Crusades and they

fought over gods and Dominion that we see today

and, believe or not, the return of mad kings

and their henchmen and women who should

know better but don't and prove that every day

sorry to have to tell you this but it is as ever

what we now call amiss and you are living

with this, again.
