***
I soaked in a tub
of verses
drowned in it
hoping to find
some saving
to breathe.I ate from a plate
of verses
choked on it
hoping to find
some appetite
to live.I slept on a bed
of verses
buried myself on it
hoping to findsome inspiration
to continue.In verses
I found myself breaking
then living,
crying then hoping,choking then breathing,
freezing then moving on.I said I breathe verses.
But most of the time,
it breathes me. # 1202ma/Aug012017
