I’ve been sleeping
light lately as
a restless person
going in and out
from one room
into another mirrors
everywhere as I
searched for my
breath the metronome
of my temporary
existence

I’ve been sleeping
light lately as
a restless person
going in and out
from one room
into another mirrors
everywhere as I
searched for my
breath the metronome
of my temporary
existence
.
.
.
,
*
if my life
could be spent
under the shade
of a wild mushroom
quietly attending
daily tasks nurturing
souls expecting
the murmurs
of death approaching
as the wind between
the foliage above
.

four are the cardinal points
to determine locations
to determine existence
to set a path
to make a picture whole
.
each has
a pre-determinated position
on the compass
.
cannot wander away
.
everything moves around
and within
boredom is not there
.
on a greater scale
they indicate
the position of the sun
the moon and the planets
in the sky
and further more
