A small creature peers around the corner and blesses the ground you walk on for ya. This fern sometimes feels like it’s tearing apart, and we don’t know what to do or where to start. I just want my job to be to love the world and by the way: I want to suck out every feeling when we just want to curl up and die, and punt it out into the outer space that we feel inside our bellies because everythings still feels the same. I’ve lived between walls before, and I’ve lived in the night, and on the floor. I’ve seen what a ray of light can do. Of course it’s not one size fits all, that’s for sure.

The fuzzy underbelly of the trunk as it sits on a hill, a couple more rope swings a piece than usual: little offerings of joy at the roots set off to the side next to movements. Just far enough to be in its own world, but not out of reach. Someday we will leave this tree but it will remember our feet putting ourselves in the bark. You and I will always have this part, a circle on the top, I’ve walked around it time and again. Sometimes I’m too tired to even go up but I imagine the trip, and you will walk for me, and tell me what you see. I’ll do the same for you.

I have been told that I am a good example of riding off into the sunset without burning up, but here’s the secret: The earth is round, and when you off into the ground you don’t catch fire. Instead you can come again, if you want to. Instead you can walk round the spheres if that’s what you got to do, and find out everything till you feel good enough to come home. I have been told that ends are just a means to brand new beginnings where you are better off. I wouldn’t have believed it myself unless I’d seen it, but now that I’m on the other side, I can confide.

Sustainable Light

I’ll continue to bask in the sunlight of unlimited possibilities, and stop to cool in the moonlight of forever rest. I will not bake, and I will not freeze. I won’t falter for now. Sleep might not come, and the night be too long. Days last forever, but the sun will go down. But just for this wink as I rest my eyes, I feel the smile of the sun and recover the night. Well, if I never die? Well, I never thought such a simple idea would be the one to keep me alive.

The Treeline

We will lay down in the dirt between leaves and trees, until the shadows lean into each other and the moon shines between the canopy. Perpendicular to our foreheads, hands pointed towards each other’s fingertips like oranges, and wait until we cannot see the eyes that always watch: because it’s too dark to not be dreaming. Cause only in our sleep can we wake up like this and walk away.
