Nature or Not?

Are we mistaken
To hold up in our minds
A paradigm of non-human Nature,
As pure, undefiled, whole?
Is this something true, useful, compelling,
Or some kind of aesthetic mythology?
I mean,
As many have asked,
So many species inhabit this planet,
And is not the human race one more?
Because whatever you can say about cultivation,
Manipulation,
Opposing thumb,
Domesticity may well fall
Into a larger category of FERAL
