somewhere deep in our dna
is the memory
of how we used to be
i call that our wildness
we became tamed and docile
so we could all live together
i call that our servitude
but no-one ever quite forgets
their wildness
it may drive their desire for beauty
or creativity or freedom
because we are still carrying
our ancestors in our blood and bones
even as we sit
in our suits and ties
and discuss important matters
and don’t imagine that you have to
be crazy or run amok
to remember your wild nature
it is much more subtle than that
that wildness is in your heart and soul
all you have to do is touch it
and taste it
because it is not really dead
until you are.
