EARTHWORMS
Stuck in my office
I forget how to breathe
Thinking about you
Lonely and afraid
A mile away
All that air in between
Exhaled by the trees
Projecting roots
Into the space
Left by the hunger
Of the earthworms
Magic poops
From dark wizards
In the dirt delight
In concert with fungi
And other creatures
Of the night
To weave fertility
From threads of
Irresistable decay
The thoughts of which
Sure try
To steal my
Oxygen today
I forget how to breathe
Thinking about you
Lonely and afraid
A mile away
All that air in between
Exhaled by the trees
Projecting roots
Into the space
Left by the hunger
Of the earthworms
Magic poops
From dark wizards
In the dirt delight
In concert with fungi
And other creatures
Of the night
To weave fertility
From threads of
Irresistable decay
The thoughts of which
Sure try
To steal my
Oxygen today
