SolubleA Poem by SignifiedGI stand alone, in the dark, and
allow my body to explode. There is a tingling in my
fingers, as the atoms take off into the night air. I inhale as my forearms drift
into the wind, and upon exhale, powdered blood bursts free of its cage, and
dances with the oxygen, and hydrogen. My feet dissolve to sand, and
slip into the earth and for the first time in my life I am flying, though just
inches from the ground. Liberating. My torso begins to resemble a
cloud as the edges gently let loose small particulates clinging to old friends
before farewells. I look to the stars and see
above me the sky has opened and I am a part of it. And now, he, the greater me,
is dissolving too, and his sky is opened to his greater her who is also looking
at her own set of stars in her own green sky and beyond I can see existence is
coming apart, finally, to start anew. We explode, simultaneously,
toward new beginnings. © 2011 SignifiedG |
