Words mean nothing
Whether they are in the multitude or
alone



I will try again though
To explain how I am
The endless green sea but also
A single grain of sand

I stretch my neck to see
How the clouds look
On the sun's side
How they are gold and silver

The song plays
Sounds of breathing
Sounds of heartbeats

It is a short ways to your shore
Where the water is warm
The mountains are tall
Gods sit cross-legged
laughing at the universe below

Their smiles trouble me with endless peace
Impossible numbers of lips and teeth and fragmented nothing
"You can have the deepest desire of your heart if you only ask?"
...if something sounds too good to be true

Just then the trees turn into waving hands
The Sleeping mountains awake rubbing fog from their sleeping eyes
   Then they stand and laugh at my stature
Smiling craggy teeth as they step into the sea

"If you only ask?"
They hover now on golden silver clouds
Culling me with sweet melodies
Whispers quite silent or just loud enough
         to echo in unseen dark caverns in my mind

"I wish I had a really ace looking pair of Adidas maybe those ones with the glow in the dark laces?"
