baby feet inked and printed
baby do you know this paper was once a tree?  i touched your feet to it and it breathed life into your soul

(many years later)
bare feet meet the earth beneath  
in patterned timing
breath ah
breath ah
breath ah
breath ah
life flows in
through the souls
of
barefeet.
breath ah
breath ah
breath ah
breath ah
bokomaru.
the mingling of soles.
breath ah
breath ah
breath ah
breath ah
here, i am animal.
hear me roar.
bare teeth.
bear feet
baby.
