Versus Nature

Against an ocean,
A vulcano,
A rock,
A dustbowl.

At dusk.
At sunrise.
In every atom.
In every cell.

Outside is hostile.
Nature feeds murder.
Outside is hostile.
Nature feeds murder.

So small.
So meaningless.
Reduced to nothing.
To a grain of sand.

Insatiable.
Inevitable.
Like quicksand.
Like a storm.

Against an ocean,
A vulcano,
A rock,
A dustbowl.

Versus nature.
Versus nature.
Versus nature.
Versus nature.
Nature.
Nature.
