Whirring into space
Thoughts fire
Like comets into
The Cosmos
Landing God knows where
Literally
(God knows these things)
They bubble up
Like the chest-burning
Carbonation of a room temp
LaCroix
Fizzing and foaming
Like a rabid, eye-glowing
Trash panda in the
Greasy back alley
Behind the burger joint
Then comes the inhale
The exhale
The inhale
The exhale
[Pause]
The oxygen
The carbon dioxide
The slow
And steady
Rhythm
Of
The breath
And the
Reassuring
Thump / Thump / Thump
Of
The Heart
Composing
Her symphony
Of
Life
Whirring halts
Bubbles burst
Foam disintegrates
And the quiet
Descends
With just
Enough
Time
To
Bring
It
All
Back Together
Just
Enough
Time
To
Bring
It
All
Back
Together
Just
Enough
Time
To
Bring
It
All
Back
[Pause]
Together
