When It Became Warm

When it became warm I no longer thought of you

As the earth began to speak with the soles of my feet again

As my bones began to protrude more than they had in the prior months 

As my skin browned quickly and finally began to soften and my hair lightened overnight

As water became sweeter and the sky became softer

As my sleep became restful 

As my eyes unsunk from their resting place and my knees began to sing instead of weep 

As I held no more tension in my belly or in my chest 

As my breath absorbed the gorgeous, heavy humidity with my mouth as moist and delicious as the outside air 

As my heart beat faster  

As the world span as slow and fast as my childhood and adulthood collided 

As I grew more in love and in lust of the energy that surrounded me 

I no longer thought of you

When it became warm I no longer thought of you; when it became cold you no longer thought of me 

Holding

step widely, new legs

breath vaguely, shallow lungs

a self soother, perpetually

giving, always; only to be stolen from 

a somber memory, a necessary evil

holding another, a third

instantly yet languidly drained of a life once held, my own Divine Feminine eroded into the earth that itself once birthed me

to be shaped by a self made tragedy, human inadequacy; a disgusting flower is growth 

shallow breaths transitioned to deep gusts of soothing oneness, I gave myself to the ether, willingly

gravity, she pulled me back, new legs, step widely 

intermittently, my body relaxes, touching the structure of my hips, breasts and ribs; on occasion I become whole again

Growing Softly

since the void has finally begun to fill with a kind of self acknowledging cement

the soul and body is softly becoming at peace with her lone self 

the levels of clarity that were once so sought after and craved for as if it were an oasis are leaking into daily life now

the she that was so lost a matter of months ago has begun to reincarnate

whilst still being lost in the winds of conflict and emotion, the soul is clearer than she has been since an age of disregarded innocence

Take as much as you can, as quickly as possible

of the earth we were created from, blessed

though like a neglectful and arrogant child, our collective whole nurses at the universal breast until it is empty, dry and useless

to never give back and to expect more, what repulsive creations our mother has exhausted herself for

nonetheless, we will rip apart our creator until she reciprocates the malice

what confused children we will be when that day comes

our mother wants her body back; unencumbered from the selfish spores we are; simply a self created plague

only time will tell until she surely rejects us

so with the remaining days you hold-

take as much as you can, as quickly as possible

Flash warning

Darling do you not hear it now

The screams of your peers and loved ones calling out for solace

The voices of today have become too much for our undeveloped cerebral, give it 4 more years

Dare as you wish to make a change when the suit above will thankfully agree, yet imprison your motives

If today was the day for change it may have been yesterday

Ignore the napalm, ignore your vices, ignore the flooding intake of inaccessible life shoved down your throat via screen

The pollutants of our various afflictions will never cease

Until the day that we can reach a transient state of being will this hell only continue to purge our mind bodies and souls
