I prayed for hands
and now I have
a small blue clock keeping time
of what I dare not think about--
how long have been I sitting here?
missed by minutes
(am I missed?)
hours spent in wordlessness--
I cannot feel them anymore
tell me what I came here for
days that slipped into the years
and I don't know much more of you
than I did before--I need-
I want-I need-I haunt-I bleed
these corridors and I'm the child
who put her finger in the plant
thinking

"Now, just digest that."
smiling at the suckling
of leaves that closed
to eat of me--

because of love's entanglement

gentle blisters edged in blue...

thinking

I will eat of you--

as soon as you are done with me.

Small steps may begin a journey just as easily as may large steps...and no one really knows what time it is.

serenity,
The cycle is inevitable why push it.
But I do love your pushy words.
