yellow stone philosophy

nature needs no excuses;
bears are a law unto themselves;
wolves are as tolerant as human beings;
roads are land-scars;
walk, don't run;
the night sky is poetic/
stars are words sprinkled in space;
even the tallest mountain is moving;
rivers are music;
sleeping on the ground is innately human;
chaos/order - two sides/same coin;
the idea of karma means nothing,
to a moose;
time is the arc of the sun;
wilderness needs nothing,
especially philosophy.
