Non-perceiving animals often it seems
Overlooking the forms and truths
That stare right back
Neglecting calamity and passion
Articulation imagination
Forgetting to think
To wait
To watch
To brood
To listen
To smell
To touch
To taste
To love
To hate
To cry
To laugh
Yet always wanting more to devour --
You
Wonder why we can't see this general myopia.
