Apartment smokey

as oiled chicken bakes,

pepper flakes crunch, pop

from excess drops,

muscles hot from crushing rocks.

A time tested method for calm head,

shed weight, elevate concentrated focus,

no external locus.

Hippie-dippy, hocus pocus,

tokeless moments notice

change and composure,

closer to found by stealing

body from ground, resurrecting

ancient things, lost memories,

how to place my foot,

shift weight, drop knee,

reach

 

for the next stone.
