Coyote

I'd rather be a coyote
 Katie Lee says
 she feels so betrayed
 rivers deserve to be free
 open mining
 in waterways, historic parks
 the lifeblood, the lungs of the Earth
 stop short
 no other spaceship like her
 carved wooden birds adorn her
 swam in potholes and waterfalls
 bathed in desert rose soft blush
 stands her naked body
 carved by sand, by wind, by dust
 carved by rain, by rivers, by streams
 flood the canyons
 drown everything
 ignore the rules of balance
 watch destruction of the sanctuaries
 wildflowers to circles to spirals from 50 AD
 gathering pine seeds
 canyon glen curving
 flood the canyons
 drown everything
 ignore the rules of balance on Earth
 watch destruction of the sanctuaries
