breathe
slip beneath the surface
slowly
sinking sailing
fading under the grass
into earth
silence
rich deep dark ancient
swimming through soil
stroke by
stroke by
stroke
world under world within world
matter anti matter
dancing dirges
in the gloom of decay
but —
life!
ah
awaits
golden in
slumber
sleeping
gently keeping weeping
in the night
awake!
fingers shoot
above the
surface
curling unfurling
breathe
