The End.A Poem by Jennifer Kiser
Day by day
I sunk further into the Earth The bright delicate moments became agony As I waited for the sun to descend beyond the horizon The darkness turned into my sedative The density of the jungle crawled under my skin It clawed at my insides Tearing my apart Piece By fragile piece The docile world I once knew was dissipating Disintegrating away With every shade of nightfall I could feel the blood course through my veins The earth stabbed into my flesh Ripping out my bones And I could see the concretion of my mind From then on I was a shadow Illuminated from within Sailing across the forest floor I no longer felt pain Only the craving sensation asking of me. Ordering me To immerse myself further into the unknown I became a body in a world without gravity. Then a mind a cosmos of structures. In a blur of moments I dissolved into the element. Streaming along within a collection of complete essences My soul had drifted away in an obscure breeze My frame melted into the core The bliss inside carried me away. And now? I imagine myself balancing inside some crystal glowing orb. Hidden galaxies and lifetimes away. © 2014 Jennifer Kiser |
