Re-Creation, 2
Are you prepared to
dissolve? Like the body
of the Christ swells to melt
on the surface of the tongue like faith
you try to savor the taste of like sustenance
you must actively seek. Do you think
you come back like hunger?
Do you think you come back
to fill yourself, them?
Do you think you come back do you think
when you are dirt you think
do you think you will grow
again? Have you prepared to evolve?
Do you think the tree
the undomesticated beast
the bee do you think
the tree desires the air, claustrophobic
for wind to soothe
do you think the tree
needs rain can’t speak of it can’t request
bequest
be grateful
what
is this swelling inside before
we are
about to
or while
we are
