A Poem by E.J. Waling

Narrative.
World
defining
narratives.
Narratives,
stories,
human
concoctions.
Before humans
what stories
were passed
around?
What religion
held sway?
What political
structure
controlled?
Before humans
what
science/philosophy
was in vogue?
Before
humanity
what did
Gaia believe,
think?
Humanity
defines its
own existence
experiences.
Made up.
Out of whole
cloth,
it’s all
made up.
Building structure
narratives
to existence.
Struggling
to cope
understand.
Control.
Control
environment
each other.
The whole
damn thing
made up.
Based
on limited
finite
human
understanding,
perception.
Earth spun
just fine.
Creation
didn’t skip
a beat.
Before
self impressed
human
narratives.
