in the dark

faceless heads cloaked in masks
meander through the earth covered floor with soil rich and fertile

souls and memories float around in the skies here
passing through trees and brush

the air alive with energy

bodies lay about, with fingers clinging to the soil
deeper and deeper
taking root
skin, bare
touching the earth

this is where life starts
released
mouths open
wide
and wider yet

sing song sing

hush now
it will be all right
i'll hold you tight
and won't let go

my arms wrapped around
your head on my chest
let the thumps warm you
crawl inside if you will

you know you have a space

let the light hit your face
eyes shut
with my lips i'll trace
and kiss them gently

we flow together
you and i
intertwined

just hush now
it will be all right
i'll hold you tight
and won't let go

look what the wind blew in

i am, in fact, still alive
i will say
the spring has been one of my least favorite of all
rain rain cold cold

as i write all the live long day at work, writing in my free time has not seemed appealing to me

to be honest, i have pure writers block

my head has been a bit fogged as well in the creative realm

i think i need...
a few days of sun
a mini trip
and some inspiration
