#minerals - Hello Poetry

Bleed me like the root that burns sins away. Find me green with envy along the Mica veins. Sermons over tiny crescents, Jack-in-the-pulpit given. Ghostpipe smoking with incense risen. - Fern's red flower. Trumpets, devil played. Creeping by the hour, Periwinkle's struggle inlaid. Spirals, the vine choking, Birch witnessed it all. An elongated anticipation before the king snake's fall.

Eyes of anthracite, ignite- Fuel for my waning spirit Food for my hungry soul. Her rays mirrored sunlight, And I, a humble acolyte: Happily dirtying myself to worship coal. The decades of pressure Stifling in leisure, tiny slivers of pleasure. Harsh force of demand. Idle gem, form of a diamond: Unaware of her own worth. How often, is ignorance our ruin And ourselves, our own undoing. To eat our own words: How it hurts

Though is the granite And smooth is the soil within All matter is condensed in one All is in motion All in the dark The circle must remain perfect

Setting stones in your pockets to get your mind down to Earth Skipping rocks over water to watch them sink one last time Scaling cliffs just to watch the valleys from up high The physical minerals of this world remind us of the things within ourselves that we choose to avoid The vitamins we lack from touch of rays because sun equates to happiness and knowledge. And we put it off for the next day That's why the physicians always tell us to watch our vitamins and minerals We are malnourished in interactions. Nature being the physical aspect we use to forget about the inside. At least for the moment Until we choose to live healthily.

After all this compression, perhaps I am becoming something after all. Crawling away from my potential worth I feel myself writhing my way from between the rocks, taking quick, shallow breaths —learning to breathe again after all this time. Each inhale still feels heavy and constricted, and every exhale still brings a sense of dread for the rise and fall of my chest but I am moving forward. Even relieved, my ribcage is adjusting painfully to the freedom, coping with more lung space; a gift I received from you.
