THE MOUNTAIN


acrylic on paper 16" x 20"
$5,000.

 

The Rock Dove holds a place supreme
In the age of the Anthropocene
While other species are erased
Debased, displaced and laid to waste
With thumbs opposed or tails prehensile
It's better yet to be commensal.

The Mountain Goat with woolly coat
Prefers a setting more remote
There is no need to sugarcoat
This bionomic anecdote.
Which merits evolution's vote, the Rock Dove or the Mountain Goat?
Both and none. That's all she wrote.
