disdain

On my morning Stroll again the air is heavy impenetrable thickets of humidity and mist The gravel underneath me cracks ready to cave in Concave burial for my feet I need to rest On the lawn where i must wait There is always one little blue ant Nibbling at the decomposing skin of an apple Devouring the essence It carries away with it something for this warm morning a star DID shine With this now i know why i write the things i do about you in pencil. I walked again this morning this time the air has stopped A mass of red abdomens lurk over the gravel and underneath there is an earth quake The red ants snatched the apple leaving the one blue and i wonder if i could crush such a force without you
