"Mountain heaves and sighs, besoils a blue berry
in the palm
of a human hand millions of years in the future,
says I become you
and you
a mountain of matter.

Blueberry plant stretches its roots
smelling the soil for atoms,
hears faint hand outstretched pinching stems pulling berries:
says what do I eat and who do I stain?"

from 'Mountain Blue', by Maya Chowdhry
