over it

by Mary Frances Spencer

fear
heavy walls
suffocating excuses
bury life
brick by brick
we entomb

mixing the sticky
mortar
anger frustration
with
jealous abandon

will we
crawl under
climb those ruins
break open
sweaty and dusty
tunnel through
lighten up

so feathered hearts
fly over
and view
piled wreckage below
seeking wind
the exhaled release

to float
on currents
intuition
trust

still anchored
but aloft
