stillness is a  blessing.  the quiet rests & unrests.   pleasure muses  in
sunlight & sometimes raindrops. laughter bends & stretches.  a  bird,
a  wind  chime.   dancing  heals  the  soul.   i’ve  never  cried,     never
danced.  so  much  beauty  in  sorrow.  it’s  hard  to  breathe  without
breaking  down.  i’ve listened to the same song.   a voice i kept secret.
yesterday  somewhere  far.  my arms wrap around the minutes.  city
lights   slowly   burn.   silence  overwhelms.   it’s   hard   to   think  of
anything.   i haven’t written in days.   i haven’t slept or ate.  the wind,
the wind. never felt this holy.  i water the garden,  flower the tears. i
feel gravity in my belly.  i’ve never wished to disappear.  as much,  as
today.   reality,  less  appealing.   everything  limes.  i whistle goodbye.
my voice,  my skin.  stars  between  my legs.  i  revisit  old  sins.  each
night a  different  flavor.  a  different taste.  there’s  a  door,  there’s a
window.  the  dark  &  i.  the kitchen,  a  halo.  the  earth  vibrates and
aches.
