It's crazy a thought

while thinking I naught-

my body’s functions

don’t experience disjunctions

and continually do what they ought.

About the Creator

Kristen Balyeat

Words fly to me on the wind, bump into me as I'm strolling the city, splash me in the face while I rest by the river, and shake me awake in the middle of the night—I’m humbly one of the vessels they use to come to life.

Also, i love you:)
