bird
a sleep had set in me
indefinitively
when you were already
bargaining my extension
mistaking that last
spritely spurt I exuded
as was gotten crushed
beyond any thresholds
you couldn’t have stopped this
in all your gravity spread
will wait for you
in the beyondness
where dreams breathe
as words

uma, the weight of this
presses on my lungs
making it impossible
to breathe.

bird of the sky & the tree;
where she goes, she knows of sorrow.
wonderful...

This is so different for you, yet the gravity in these words are so profound Uma. A beautiful and as Katja say's, weighty piece. :) x
