how old is the air i breathe(preview)

how old is the air i breathe(preview)

A Poem by sageflames

is the air I breathe recycled air of my ancestors?

is every first breath of life new-

or something borrowed from the dead?

how old is the air i breathe?

do I take in light years or seconds?

particles of death and life intertwining

forming the ghost I never see

the chill I feel

the hero of my day
