The Forest & the Desert
There’s a deep forest path that
lingers
just for a bit,
somewhere between stable and healthy
and in walking that path
one may find himself
growing
much like the foliage;
trees, yawning
and vines, curious, spread wild
breathing life
and air
and motion
until the path disappears
and diminishing greens
turn to sullen brown
and the desert looms
deep breaths are unyielding
motion is muddy
it doesn’t feel quite right
seeing forever isn’t as grand
when there’s not
much to see
it’s so much bigger
than the forest seemed to be,
isn’t it?
a little pompous but i like the metaphor
