nothing less than
a miracle
a flourishing
up-top
and grass
smelling like hair
within every
moment is a little
emblem
telling you what
that moment
is supposed to mean
the sun
is out but
very shy
moving through thoughts
like
a finger
trying to get
something out
of an eye
but let's just calm down
my friend
let's focus
on
what is
at hand here
total silence
and
the feeling
you have
right after surgery
each letter
in your
name asleep
but aflame
all you have
ever accomplished
contained
inside
a secret
socket
every moment
pushed
out of pain
and into
paralysis
jump-started
into
blank
terrain
