niight

do you see that
big as expanse of everything that is
viewed here while sitting smelling honeysuckle

do you launch like that
vivid as you live running dauntful from sorrow
the thick of your life which you rut and balance

it's funny how the most important things
go unnoticed

it's funny how the source of our souls is so jokingly apparent
yet
it's funny how you sing and talk and cry and write and
don't

I used to hear your name called out and visualized through these means
can you imagine hearing through feeling
I never once thought it wasn't real

how close a voice from so far can become
ground down from the expanse of
realization


we will all travel dark as night
into and out of view
it is night everywhere, ya know
the gate is open
flung high from your chest

there you go
