breathe deeply settle, pause i am a crack in the pavement filled in beautiful rocks and remembered by kids who walk to school past me i am an old scroll revealing to the wandering alchemist where she is supposed to be i am a ceiling fan that rattles i am a bird who starts yelling way too early i am a used bookstore that smells like dog eared corners and yellow pages iām a great dog i am your worst enemy and your favorite lover i **** flies but not spiders i hate dismissal i see you
