In My Place
No beasties, no men.
Only birds and
butterflies
Flitting and floating
On the still air without
care.
No beasties, no men.
An uncompromising
fortress
Of green walls and blue
sky
Freeing the light to
dance
Over the grass
In harmony with the
winged.
No beasties, no men
To trample and crush.
No beasties, no men
To holler and rush.
No beasties, no men
No beasties within.
