Genealogy of the Squirrel

Contemporary, modern, post-modern
full of unfocused angst
obliterated quickly in daily din
of life and death in the universe

academy-driven conventions
obscurantist, heuristic, tautologic
heralds of higher consciousness
deploring the loss of nature

drenched with ego-laden emotions
scripted with missing words
hollowed of any useful meaning
inducing blind mind’s bluff

rather more intriguing now
the unresearched genealogy
of recently returned gray squirrels
long absent this past summer.
