The Mental Migration

of molecules pulls me from sleep. I can seethe dance of possibilities permeating. Defiantredactions and contractions of cellular mattermeet and sometimes merge in the free spaceof a forgotten breath. Documentarian by nature,I am forced to catalog these collisions. Exquisiteexplosions of potential flow through me, an eye-widening wash of would-be dreams.

I Am Awake

a perpetual human metronome.I am continuousa body never at rest. I swingin light and darkness. No shadowcan wrap me in its embracefor long. I am revolution,an unbreakable cycle. I will maintain, breathingthrough another million dawns.
