Dying Into Each Other

We all have a birth mother

Each of us has a name

Each has a temple

We all die

 

We all breathe

We all live in the dirt

We all thirst water

We all hunger sustenance

 

Gravity prevails

Petals shed and settle

Atop verdant leaves

Vying for the sunshine

 

The flower’s final blood

Bleeds-out onto the leaf

Burning brightly through

 

Transposing its essence

With a spiteful scar

For sharing space

Means sharing fate

 

Secrets spilled

Wisdom instilled

 

Crossbreed longevity

Genetic gentility

Ancestral progression

Evolution procession

 

We all seek pleasure

We all pump blood

We all process awe

We all fear hurt

 

We are, each, miracles

Each of us has value

Each of us has the touch of life

From each of us comes raw potential

 

We’re all adapting

We all need help

We all can help

 

Everything is created unto itself

Timelessly retrofitting

Momentarily indefinite

And forever the entirety

◄ Let's Go

Perpetual Dusk ►
