If The Heavens Ever Did SpeakA Poem by Laura MurphyThe body is a wonderland Containing secrets the world will never
hear, Never acknowledge, never feel, Forever extending, never completing the
circuit.
The circuit, winding its unique path Around lumps and bumps, turns and
tumbles, Tipping the scale, adding highs and lows To the white line but falling slowly.
Falling slow down the rabbit hole With eyes wide and spinning, Catching a slight glimpse of light At the end of the tunnel.
The tunnel so much as touching the
finger Reaching for the end Quickly pulls away leaving uneasy air Between the start and the finish line.
The uneasy air allowing The never-ending secrets to continue the
circuit But if the heavens ever did speak They would say:
The circuit only completes its course on Ready,
Set, Go. Ready,
Set, Gone.
