the thoughts float in
so many different
rambling random words
images evoking provocation
fitting their forceful flesh
into perfectly packaged
possibilities and desires
.
let them go
let them flow
in then out
.
without anchor
void of cages
.
porous
breathe
.
.
everything
from nothing
and no.thing
fills more space
in places
.
that need not
everything
.
.
unchain
exhale
.
yet we reach for it all
stretching overextended selves
to the limit and the brink
until we grasp exhausted
gasping from the effort
pulling back empty hands
realizing there
lay everything
we ever
.really.
needed
