Standing by the river trying to be still enough
to erase the fact
that we are erasing wilderness.
If I can just open myself to this moment,
I won't be part of the problem anymore.
But that is just wishful thinking.
How still was I trying to be?
Still enough that I could transcend being part of the
consumption of wilderness.
But that's just wishful thinking.
