Feeding Frenzy

As a pescatarian,

it takes my breath away

The feeding frenzy of birds of prey

Swirls of life within the sky’s enclaves

Meeting schools of life beneath the waves

Who lives and who dies in the balance

Of the chaos or world peace challenge?

Complexity beyond our comprehension

Yet simplicity in primal need of consumption

The feeding frenzy—a despair or delight?

What species will survive our global plight?

At the surface of air & water, a twirl

What elements at play in todays whirl?

As a pescatarian,

I only control one body’s eat

Yet the heart of my pen may influence a retreat—

A return back to just enough in our bowls

Plant based home grown food for souls

Some still go hungry, while others gorge beside

The Haves and have nots;a growing divide

As The feeding frenzy here at the beach

My questions churn within a silent screech

The answers swim somewhere in

Natures school beneath, just beyond our reach

May all come to ponder…

How we will live into the wonder

How we will consume just enough…

While the awe fills us up!
