Just So

I am the rain you hear 
between your heartbeats,
as the feather floating above
reeds, of time
I fly


with hands infinitesimal
I stroke the hairs
on the nape of your neck
to considerable highs


within mucus and membranes
I interweave,
sweeping specks
of lightning off my back


so, I am 
still


all and nothing
a sum of wear
and the ‘O’ in one
