In deaf hibernation
Amidst a stunning collapse
Coughed into existence
By the breath of the hollow
It was to be nature’s theatre
The splendor of the gods
Bestowing the gift
Of hearth and dance
The surface cracks
Giving way
To serpentine form
Persistence may be
The greatest strength
Of living things
Writhing through the ashen crypt
The fibers ripple
Attuned and alive
Untouched by thе poison
Of malintention
They scatter likе serpents
Across the blighted refuse
And blot the light from the sky
Can one take refuge in dissolution?
My many faces prove to be superficial
In my gut I feel the leash;
A disturbance tugging me
Into newness, grief, and awe
Perceptive and enlightened, alive
The delicate insight of new eyes
