Human Saturation - a poetic reading by Lloyd Godman

The dusts of being human hang in paper thin valleys
lace the rising hills with fine coatings of filth we refuse to see
grains of contemporary existence fall from a heavy sky
create layers that separate one crest form another
the landscape is shifting

solarized heat burns the atmosphere we breath
the colour extends beyond our sensitivity
we cant feel it - see it – touch it- hear it

but nature hears - feels - sees - touches us
