-e.e.cummings
yes! see its breasts
behold its offspring suckle
the careful little foothills
the streams
the wanton waterfalls
canyons and rills
mother - they cry
or some variation of that
look what I can do
and then they play
at her implacable calm
oh but do not mistake that calm
for irresponsive insouciance
tamper with her child and see her
blow her top off
strew trees
shred brush
and litter your world with ash
