Custom

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Feb 05, 2024 

Custom 
made.
Souls
and
mind.
Custom 
made.
Creation
of the
terrarium.
Earth.
Wet,
salty,
terrarium 
earth.
Mind
designed.
Designed 
within
its
confines.
Designed 
for survival
within.
Limited in
function.
Made for
earthly 
needs.
All that’s
known
such
derived.
Deeds,
accomplishments,
grand
histories
terrarium 
manufactured.
Genius 
on a 
limited 
scale.
Stunningly 
unaware
of what’s
beyond.
Simply not 
designed 
as such!
