inside

taking the plunge again on into the moist silver chrysalis
searching for you
you're hidden from us again because you know how
so you do it
very
cold
calm
well
I sharpened my razors and teeth, my instincts
so I can better reach you
where you are leading me
deeper in & through this living stone
is
this
what
you
hear-ing your heart slowly beating breaths
echoing along the waters, the sinew and bones
silver reflectors reminding me of the seventies
disco boots you wore back then
when
your
heart
stopped
just as we kissed and breathed in the smoke
feeling our lungs bursting to run for a door
a way out of this place
the exterior of the moist silver chrysalis
thankfully
deeper
things
held
when we collapsed through the illusion
finding everything, all
was drowning us with our futures together
our life of emotions
together
we
found
beginnings
of the end of the outside of the moist silver chrysalis
by following this sticky slippery wet life force inside
the blindness vanished
where I seek and follow us
again
into
again
into
