FALL'S ANTIDOTE TO ARTIFICE (10-6-2010, a.m., Palm Springs, California)
this fall
is not eclectic
high tech
digital electric
nor will it be
perceived
fully experienced
or appreciated
by most people
for what it
simply is
but will still
remain transcendent
for some
for those who can
just as
its always been
in its innate
natural essence
beyond the distraction
influence
and reach
of all those
man made
artificial things
which now
so densely permeate
and completely
overwhelms
this our present
only world
in its own
authentic
naturally organic way
transcendent
of as well
all that which
has come
before
come and
lingered
come and gone
though which still
persists
and returns
to become
once more
here yet again
here within
falls perpetual cycles
of its own
recurrent refalling
for fall
is falling
indeed refalling
even here
right now
again
even as i
speak
and write
think or daydream
with or without
voice
nor sound
nor anyone to listen
much less
ever truly hear
no matter how
its said
or shown
felt thought
perceived or not
for fall still
nonetheless
soon now comes
increasingly
descending upon us
more and more
each day
to ease us all
to soothe our
hurried lives
our harried minds
to calm and heal
our wearied hearts
and senses
with its soft
cooler
increasingly shorter
crisp reflective
lucid blue sky
sunlit pillow
more idyllic
dreamlike
desert days
and nights
now come
to gently comfort
and relieve
this too long
stressed out
completely burnt out
deeply misguided
hopelessly imbalanced
ego blinded
self destructive
profoundly
unenlightened state
of our
spiritually disconnected
human species
dysfunctional
collective beings
no longer sustainable
increasingly inevitable
well deserved
collapse
now quickly
spiraling
down
to its own
ultimate
final
solutions
remedially just
resolve
