We Give by Kevin Gooden
Over and over in this poem what you hear is that injury is just to be expected phenomenal injury and pain. The shattered ligaments are sutured and then they keep working and then they're tattered again. It's creating a way within which animals and other living beings in this forest area can survive and thrive. There is the confrontation with something elemental that the fire evokes in them that says I want to be here fighting this fire, tending this fire, working here because it too in this place is an ash dark art that I will bend to once more.
