the roots of Chinese medicine?
a respect for strange formations,
proper spirit interaction,
showering down from trees.
provincial inspiration?
from Japanese intervention,
aboriginal affection.
melange of
Soviet youth corps campers,
and American recreational
gazing at the wonder,
daredevils doing documentaries,
surviving reality shows,
and buying souvenirs.
European's dividing it from culture;
God's creation serving man's purpose,
the bible's fruitful injunction.
to harness all for science,
ravaging her for industry,
the pathway to obituary.
through Western Chauvinism
that tells you
"trees cannot in a forest fall
without you there to view it."
unnatural detachment
from the "qi" energy
that unites us all
