Puhpowee:

 

They make their own wind to send children

out into the world

thrive in the electrical storms

have their own force that pushes them

to emerge ready to be seen every morning

some can bend the mind

form miniature circles and amphitheaters

provide shelter and shade

 

and all the while we think of apples falling

an atom’s dance

and a cat that’s neither here nor there

 

while failing to see powers that create

as they feed on radioactive waste

and dream of one single forest again.
