I laid on the table yesterday
Needles stuck in the stuck chi
I awoke, wondered
Holding the dissolution of life
How it dissipates like a dream
Rarefied, I, The Bridge, Phoenix
All vibrating loudly
Wondered that I came to earth for this
The grace to have this union
Just this union of speech
In this conflagration
If it weren’t for you, I’d never known
Human love was agreeing to love myself
In another’s presence
Oh, but we never spoke about repulsion
Agreeing to hate yourself
In another’s presence
Wondered, I had to realize that
Alone
The Stream of Life
