Dora Digs Deeper

When growing up
doesn't yeild results
anymore...  
 
growing down  
becomes new salvation  
 
You don't have to be
somewhere or someone
to see that something  
is left down in there
 
below Jack Frost's  
murderous cold
the ground is warm
...soft, responsive
 
like the inner arms  
of your private thoughts  
not frozen,  
like the conversation  
above it all
 
When Dora can't  
hear anything  
but critism for  
endless hours
 
after being cut down
all that is left
life underground  
 
 
...it is what she digs in for
