Chill out Oli

A Response to Plants

Hello Sir, please understand that we do not live in Tamlin's Court.

You did not commit a heinous crime that will result in your arrest.

Do not feel the need to update your passport

so that you can evade the nature that wakes you from rest.

The helicopter leaves that you believe carry malicious intent

are simply the workings of gravity. 

I do not write this merely to dissent,

I'm just worried that you are constructing another Flat Earth Society.

I agree with you that these mangroves are scary,

but believe me when I tell you that they are not sentient.

While you may wade through the thicket feeling wary,

it will not be because the environment expresses malcontent.
