                          One stick in between two fingers

                          a glare on that burnt end
                          let your soul transform
                          into the shape of the wind
                          as you smoke in
                          abruptly put it on hold
                          then gently breathe out...
                          Magically,
                          it pulls out that dagger on your chest
                          more so if
                          you close your eyes, as I close mine...
                          One puff, look up the sky
                          so, you realized
                          for a moment
                          you stopped
                          bickering to yourself.
