torment of confused 3/5 mile stare
from amazed maw blare unadorned
color lungs beyond language
approach rot
as you return to the boy you once were
the statue of liberty in your hand a thermometer
blooming aveoli for time
brain a giddy cacophony thick
opaque as grass
your face in it skidding
years don't measure but thoughts
& new pathways among nerve cells
we see how color affects us
room painted wall unchosen skin
in fractal history folds around
tori time bulbs over cut in half
earthworms churning soil hand
with fingers closed more easily slices
lake water cloudy with life
