perspective

when did we
become so small?

how do we fit
into these tiny suits
of self?

surely
we were meant
for greater
reach.

This tiny suit of self is such a cool phrase. Here is where you took me...

Changing For The Better

In reaching to scratch
the itch on my blade I felt
the seam's sudden split
and it spilled out new.

I am born of this young wing,
born of wind and love,
born of yearning breath,
of voice and of your bright eyes,
the way you touch me.
