it is a gift to see what happens next
the flash of an accident the death of the salesman

it is the sharpness of the mind the constant grilling
and sanding that makes you see what others don't

at night you notice the dance of fireflies
the formation of stars and the myths of their shapes

at dawn you hear the sighs of the wind
the untold stories of the crickets and the worms

the ceiling gets closer to your heart
the floors wait for your feet

this morning, the smell of coffer travels like a dragon
to your nostrils giving you more fire

you spit warmth, you swallow love
you chew affection, you discard pretension.
