Skin nestled next to the corners of the eyes
and lines pointing to the triangle of white.
Like arrows
leading to the sun -
a fireball watching over for 35 years.
It gives gifts,
like textured hands
and busy brains.
Pumping blood to the rhythm of,
“To do rather than to be. to move rather than to feet,
'cause we don’t have time for that”
The daily blaze speaks,
as we roll toward him for a sunset,
and roll away
all the same.
I dreamed again of my childhood.
Those final pages
where summary is like twine tying up
something - though it feels
undone.
I dreamed again of feeling. Of unknowing.
Of discovery - a pillowy dress surrounding me.
I dreamed again of beauty.
Rays of heat present,
nestling upon that small patch of the wooden floor -
where dust particles dance and float and suspend
themselves for a moment.
With nothing else to do
but be.
As eyes close, the temples stretch, and
It’s smooth again.
A freshly made skin bed -
Unbothered.
Unknowing.
Young again.
I dreamed again.
