does a leaf fail when it falls?
does a tree fail during drought?
this human mind
grows from a soil
much bigger than itself
learn from others
open to truth
all around
crack the shell
& stay with the old discomforts
as they bubble away
stay stay stay!
and know when You were gone and where you were –
that ghost town-
where every sound is a spook
and every touch
a terror
.
every night a death
and every morn
a vile veil
