Ground

Thump thump

I can feel and hear my heart

Beating inside my chest

 

The anchor keeping my soul attached

To this flesh

Fusing ever so intricate

Until death approches me silently

Carrying with him my last breath

 

Stopping me in my tracks so swiftly

I feel no urges to look back

Nor the urge to retrace all those steps

Back into the mess of what was

My life

 

Eternally at rest

What was once a sick animated meat puppet

Now harmoniously harbors a terrarium filled with Mushies, moss, and insects

 

How wonderful to envision

What was once twisted, sick and confused

from the ribcage that delicately harbored my heart and lungs,

Too the ten toesies that kept me grounded.

 

Vibrantly vibrating were it needs to be , when it was needed there.
