I will lay down and wait for the earth
to consume me
I want everywhere
I want to touch, to breathe in the life of him, them,
they look like they
could swallow me whole.
There is so much life in there grasp
but
I love this sense of possibility too much
I want to stand on the edge
and breathe in a moment that is mine.
not theirs
not ours
not yours
mine.

There is so much life in there grasp

I love this sense of possibility too much
I want to stand on the edge
and breathe in a moment that is mine.
not theirs
not ours
not yours
mine.
