never mind king of the jungle
fame's at food chain's other end
you decomposer

under every log and leaf
rolypoly armadillo armies
protected in your sphere

comminuting detritus dismantling cellulose
back to C, N, H, and O
building blocks for bio highrise

with overcast complexion Hell is above ground.
Beware The Light.
Heaven, a warm black earth

patiently munching whole dead forests
eating Death
shitting Life
