GOD IS

GOD IS —

a force
a pounding
a hammer 
a nail
a piercing
the surface 
the substrate
symmetry 
sprawling
no end 
in sight

LIFE EATS LIFE


Roots traverse

The water table and the sky

Life eats life

Survival and violence

Grafted here in copulation

Convexed in a condition

Of pure exhibition
