Flesh and Bones
I am not just flesh and bones,
I am the space between two
vast mountain ranges and
the depth that swoops below.
I am the gray mist that takes
on form and touch and kiss everything.
I seep into cracks and crevices
and swoon beneath stark beauty
...I ride high on plumage wings.
I am nothing and
every tangible thing,
but never still.
I feel the sunlight
I feel the rain.
I am ageless and timeless,
a void in the dark hollow,
feeling the embrace of doom
but never fear. For I am more than
flesh and bones.
Deep in slumber, these words stirred up, provoking me to write them down.
