asleep ancient me
darker than black
buried alone
in my seattle apartment
my gray turtle's meager mortality
my gray giraffe's frowning fragility
my gray lobster's linear ennui
polarized in binary
my gray gator's selfish destruction
my gray tiger's ignorant revenge
my gray cardinal's rigid rejection
captured in scarcity
my gray frog's fearful forgetfulness
my gray chick's confused confinement
my gray ladybug's delusional doing
suffocated in slavery
night knot of death yet
no thought remains
blank and waiting
cruise ship's cantelope glow piercing the gray fog of aqua dark dawn
instantly now, remembered alive!
secured in the infinite silence
flowing aware
ignited heart bursting
freed back to morning life
bright peaches' authentic being
bright strawberries' clarity released
bright avacados' fearless remembering
relaxed in sovereignty
bright lemons' fluid acceptance
bright apples' knowing forgiveness
bright limes' selfless creations
liberated in abundance
bright apricots' simultaneous excitement
bright cherries' smiling strength
bright kiwis' invincible eternity
unified in consciousness
lifted together
beyond our universal wilderness
brighter than white
us awake now
