raw as honey
pure as rain dripping on the pavement.
i was a caterpillar with an ocean for a mind.
soft sweet currents shifted swiftly and i was at peace.
lightening, a purple sky arrayed throughout the horizon
dusk broke.
i was pillowed in darkness as my head rested in between my legs in suspense.
long days and even longer nights crept into me like a worm inside a hole
it grew on me like sorrow sped into sweetness and i felt whole
until my world shed into nothingness and i felt as broken as glass that made love to the harsh ground
i crawl out holding on to my home with tensity. it was as frail as a snakes last skin.
crumbled beneath my finger tips
i had no choice but to let my dark hands block the morning's sun
it beamed brighter and brighter until it buried me in its serenity
my arms opened
bright hues of marmalade and ginger kissed my body
and i flew to the sun
