un-calloused

the unnoticed is but a marvel

grown common.

a spectacle antagonized by

frequency.

the gravity-defying moth,

unknowingly,

discovered what took the minds of

millennia.

a leaf’s sacrificial leap,

death alone to find

leaves her lasting legacy

on a fertile floor.

if a hundred happen

within your waking hours

don’t let your callused hands

infect your watching eye.
