The Trance
I awake from trance
Did not expect to see
Him here. No not today.
Did not expect to look
Upon his face with wonder
As absence filled my grasp
Maybe today was a rough
Day or maybe I’m too tame
He breathed out his spittle
Seemed like stars
And was absorbed greedily
By the ground. He looked down
And saw a small plant come to rise.
He didn’t kill it
He didn’t kill it!
