Kit Kelen #744 - we of a breeze begin

744

we of a breeze begin

stain dwellers

tide turned

we are all the blood

for motion

we catch

ourselves

awash away

and each begin

into an intensity

here because

there's breath left

and sometimes hard

to spit it out

because I'm here

a word with you

begin because

there's still to climb

and we make mountain

of it

the earth

in fast thick pants

all overgrown

this orchard I

to the last rung

riser

cloud come in

squeeze

tether me any sea so

some days

dry twig

so heaven should bless

then tendril touch

and all enfold

caught to be kissed

and on

guess again

come bright

of the vision sought

certain notes

spin up from the fire

a pollen cough

or come through smoke

then we're the dark of it

thus far

carbon

must have slept to here

the snoring!

stertorous

we catch ourselves awash

and of a whim

then witness

it's work

this cramming air in

and call the forest lungs

call forth

a word because I'm with you

take mine

tell on

where I leave off

all of a breeze begin
