Senses, to be touched
and to be able to touch, the difference
between being and not being
I touch, so I exist
If I am not touched
I will wither, but
if I do not touch, I do not exist
I can be a loner
touch plants and animals
to live on
I can influence their lives
change their future
I can feed, kill and everything
in between has effects too
even the smallest ripples
make a difference, that is existence
the way we want it, making a difference
making a little positive difference
with each wing beat
