It will be soon now
Soon now
We will return to it
do you remember your dream
can you remember being
suspended in the salty sea,
weightless and perfect
like a willow or swallow
or bush or thrush
can you remember being perfect like grass
or have they beat it out of you
the pureness of things, of your heart
like a delicate bloom, like a newborn sparrow
all downy softness and new growth
all pink rose and budding and warm thick blood
have they dried us to a shiver
that’s their job
what did we do today
the only day of this life
go through the motions
our fingertips cracked
It's ok
It will be soon now
It is almost here
