#tardiness - Hello Poetry

A tail of something that swam here, the beginning of welling blood I spy with my little eye Streaks and something alive A faltering world Or am I looking too quickly? Past it, over it? Am I even looking? It would take an unliveable number of years to be aware of what I perceive I lack the overview to select what's important and I wonder why the unimportant should be important to me now Or am I just slower?

I pick up plants from the street and slow down Caring with soil, scissors and cotton wool I slow down and cook, for him, and with him everything else slows down. I don't do much At first wilfully, daily exercises and meditation, my body asked for it Attention Esther covered my skin, he caresses it, he catches my navel lint Childish games, silly jokes Giggling like a lama Cuddling, energy from the sun behind my clouds Peace of on and off buttons The slower ******* and spitting of the ganglia in my head No more overdrive All neural pathways know it

Everything goes slow, his walking, his answering -- Always three dots first...
