if a tree falls in a forest

2025-02-21

if a tree falls in a forest and no one is there to hear it
does it make a sound
if your voice is unheard
do you have one
land has no room left
for the masses of corpses
identities are stripped
art is nonexistent
artist is nowhere to be seen
for humans made
to be a product in the 21st century
industrialization industrialized individuals

how do you want to read?

poems can unravel themselves as you read, line by line, at a considered pace — or just sit there, fully visible, like normal.

change this anytime — look for “reading: …” near the top of any poem.
