It went away
and now it's black.
It will fill in all white
again.
You still must choose
to adjust your vision
&
focus wisely.
When you hear the motion light
on the side of the garage
click off-
you are listening near enough
to know
nothing has moved but you
momentarily
feeling trapped.
This is the only way to know
How
you or I can be
almost wild again.
Not in fight or flight mode.
Always scanning our environment.
Back to animal dreams
feeling the body's symbiosis
with a man-made mind,
distinguished
from its Nature.
The cat screams.
