Knotted Spirit

We will not die

----------------------------------------

If we go through conquests

and raging seas of people,

or cancers of faith and rock,

will pull me back to hard,

I’ll follow you up and out and through

the illusion of skin and gravity.

Even without a hand to hold, I can still

feel the warmth of your summersweet spirit.

And the pull of pain—cut, like an umbilical cord

to sweet mother earth. The pain will haunt you no

more. And although I cannot join you

in the cool press of the next something,

I too will see that shot of light,

just a glimpse of things that glimmer,

Before I am yanked back like a yoyo, your voice

in awe—Check this out. Here we are.
