i don't like dancing,
but i do enjoy a good stretch
letting my hands get closer to heaven
maybe if i fold down deep enough
if i tuck my navel in and draw the heart towards the knees
i'll discover the space between the breaths
that i have been missing.
how does that look for a night in?
i wish routine was mine to define
there's a new color in the sky
space black mixes in with milky white lights that flicker on and off at midnight
a goodbye, lost in reverie
it will never be dark enough
to swallow the bolts of thunder,
it might be clear enough to torment us another day.
just then you asked
if i felt something had changed
there's a new air rising,
you said
i peeped through the curtains and there's people outside
