A gorillas existential crisis

prrompt

The world is too much with us

Dec 22, 2025Dec 22, 2025Matt4 Comments

The pigeons cut diamonds in the trees
And the wind cut through in whispers
Telling all who would listen
What they they strained for it to be
But windows were sealed
And fences whistled
With forlorn decree
That pagan Gods had been trodden and outworn
And the world is too much with us; late and soon
We’ll always be
