a praying mantis someday encased in amber - escapril day 11

a praying mantis someday encased in amber - escapril day 11 everything is as it should be because today
there is no should be, just is. antenna. thorax.
eyes, escaping moons. these go unchanged.

i hunt. we feed and earth gives and we feed.
wash myself in the old rain. dry in young sun.
no wars here. i am life from lifelessness.
fight to continue the honor and that’s all.

it ends in a rush of gold and heat where i’ll stay, someday
a symbol of divinity, arms poised in eternal invocation.
