you know how people will tell you you can like be anything and then their idea of anything is like CEO doctor lawyer scientist celebrity if you're quirky
the best thing I've ever thought of in response to that is that I honestly just want to be a small section of rainforest floor
like honestly imagine just being a small section of rainforest floor, that's just the absolute dream
[finish this later with more details and make it sound more serious]
version 2:
small piece of rainforest floor enemies to lovers/ comrades
i attempt to fell a tree
the tree exchanges energies with me
it dies
i die
i am reincarnated as a small piece of rainforest floor
it is reincarnated as a human
(and subsequently is ran over by a car
because that is a major killer of human children)
having lived out a human life,
it is reincarnated as a tree
right next to my small patch of rainforest floor
we exchange energies,
as does happen in forests
we are comrades
version 3:
a small square
of rainforest floor.
a moss mat
grows over my corpse
and fungus
feeds on what was.
as i died
i was looking up
through the trees
the dappled leaf light
falling on
gently closing eyes
and the wind
chilling one last time.
it all feels
like it is okay.
like i can
let myself just be
a part of
the rich humus and
acidic
fallen needle piles;
as the roots
of grandmother trees,
undergrowth,
and creeping bramble
make their way
through my hollowed bones;
and creatures
grand and miniscule
pay no mind
to what will soon be
and always
only ever was
a small square
of rainforest floor.
