Life held together by tension
spider’s web
Being an adult is seeing the wasps nest but sitting under the tree anyway
Anchor as burdon
Do you see your own death?
only beauty in memory
the happiness that killed you
the heroine of love coursing through you,
that carries you into a sleep free of pain
dreams free of falling and a life free of death
over and over stuck in the moments
before
Of youth
Of beauty
Of the truest love
and the contentedness that allowed you to rest your head for the last time
and all that was will be again
what is now will be before
as glass spins, gears tick, and leaves fall
We are the lattice.
Got lost running in place
The night reflects the day as the moon reflects the sun
poorly
our world is one of hierarchical
interpolations
Who copies the best copy
Who used the best words
of all the hands reaching into the Lego bin,
Who designs the tower before the first brick is lain?
