Tenuous at best This equilibrium I find myself clinging to. Dangling from the earth by my cranium. Watching as others, like birds must see fish, flail about the universe, feet bound to the firmament above us.
For us it resembles suffocating or haphazard design. Unable to fathom the sensation of the skull flopping about deleteriously. As though hanging their brains as bait and net to whatever hazards might glide below.
Yet, these impressions would be invisible to the thinking mind, forgotten. And ours pondered over as a peculiar mystery born of some untamed imagination.
This poem is written from the perspective of a being who lives in the world with the earth above them and the sky below.
