niche science 3:8

Novel creatures find a vacancy
A whole where process lies dormant
A world of raw material
Setting idle waiting to be transformed
To get back on with the process of life
While other process’ function
Picking up the slack in the line of life
Do you use the right lure on the life line?
Does your fish catch enough bait to remain
Attached to the pathway where your feet tread?
Can you feel the change rumbling, tumbling
Stirring upheaval in the bellies of folks
Dissatisfied with the means handed forth
By the playing deck of societal privilege
Being in the right place at the right time
Is the right of every activist – at your expense
