Burn
It’s
there (still), but
(buried deep
beneath
day-to-day detritus, frag-
ments,
debris, meaning-
less
details;) you
need
to
dig
Inhale
(hold
golden oxygen
deep
inside thirsty lungs,
flood
sun- starved pulmonaria,
purge
weeds, preparing soil
for
better seeds)
dig
deep
Exhale
(anger,
frustration, imp-
atience
– deep into ozone to be
banished,
ignited, consumed –
a
controlled burn, making space
for
new growth; seek sprouts)
dig
deeper
