HENRY DAVID THOREAU UNDERSTOOD...

YOU MUST RESPECT NATURE IN ORDER TO COMPREHEND THE TOTALITY OF "THE WILDS".

THE WILDS

Flesh tearing untamed devouring the beast in a state of aliveness.

Only a headhunter stalks the days and nights,and only a victim can be stalked.

And yet one captures the other.

EVERY CREATURE IS PREY AND EVERY CREATURE IS PREDATOR.

Enter the madness of it all.

And yet when man has a gun he reasons that he is the Food Chain Operator.

Put him in the midst of the madness without his mighty sword and every creature will eat him alive.

One way or another, man becomes the flesh that the untamed tear to pieces...

...Whether that be physically or mentally.

He does not belong in The Wilds Of The Woods.

Respecting and bowing to the Wildness is the only acceptable outcome.

Let The Wilds be The Wilds and let the humble man dwell in the safety of his castle.

How dare he even enter the Sacred Woods, and yet how dare he not devote his entire life to the study of it all.

Step into the Domain and risk the life of a castle dweller.

Victims die in the harsh woods so that it can be a soft and Beautiful place.

It is the background that lends Splendor to the foreground, completing the chaos of the grand scheme.

Go there and you may not come out alive, and yet go there and you may come out more alive that what you've ever been.

Respect the aliveness.

Respect the circle of life.

Respect the danger and Beauty of "THE WILDS".

 This is written in honor of Henry David Thoreau. Through his writings and insight, I have become even more satiated within the sponge of Nature.
