Hours thinking of one memory, Like a bird roosting on an electric pole, That never flew again. In Isolation, we're incapable of seeing. I draw you, You draw me. There's no story. There's only Being. How free are we really? Birds fighting out of smaller doors, Into cages larger and larger. Learning over the years? How to lie, please, present and sail. Dreams of higher swings.
Mostly I brush life off my shoulder when it falls gently from a tree, or when it grows from my shirt like lint. Mostly i sigh it away like a laugh from an unfounded joke or a waft of extra air in speech. Except sometimes.
