My Cheeks Hurt From Smiling
Swaddle me
like a mother
hug me
like no other
let me believe
momentarily
something
else
exists
Sea shells
on a sea floor
become sand
and fade back
into this
empty
shit
Life
I can see you
but what
do you
feel
like?

Ashes to ashes, but what comes next? Another plane of existence or nothingness? Enjoy being seashell, it may be nothingness... deep imagery! JJ
