Every Breath

what appears
as space
emptiness

is full of air

oxygen nitrogen
carbon dioxide
noble gases

water vapor
sometimes
bitter taste of ash

with each intake empty lungs fill
each inspiration
transformative

composition
different
on exhalation

less oxygen
more carbon dioxide
still air yet different

each breath
transforming us
and the atmosphere
