Trippy by Uriel Tovar
to be the one who says good bye to the cells
dropping down a slippery throat
letting go of a now stranger world--
taking flight into the sky
and all the while wondering why
you hadn't taken this trip before.
i've lost myself before
in this world of yours
exploring the friendly skies
which might not be so vast
if i could just go with you.

Posted by Jeanne Marie Hoffman on 09/28/05 at 08:59 PM Ooo, I like this, especially the last stanza. There is a slight confusion (in a good way!) in the beginning, if that makes any sense at all, and it all resolves itself :) |
