The Moment

expel sound

now breathe--in,

breath in, damit!

clogged the air is,

like when you reach Destiny.

Reach out, so short a distance,

to clammy brown fingers,

short and soft--

only a foot,

such a magnetic repulsion.

Caress, learn to caress,

nope--that's scratching.

Push gently,

nope--that's shoving.

leave, try to leave,

nope--that's love.
