An Artist Studying from Nature by Claude Lorrain
The artist just wants
to study nature alone
Men obstruct his view
They build castles looking down
on the men having to work
day in and day out
for the elite behind the stone walls
and they build some more
all in the name of progress
My Daughter Conquers the Rock Wall at Gymnastics
Evelyn climbs up
Thinks she can’t get to the top
Smiles touching ceiling
When Death and Birth Overlap
On the third day
Jesus rolled the stone away
After being consumed by flames
the Phoenix is reborn
Zombies’ human minds die
as their bodies continue on
relentlessly seeking brains
Death and rebirth take on many forms
in lived experience and myth alike
and it is not always for the better
