We have to own every beautiful

thing we see,

every person, every living thing,

do we?

Some of us are fed by the Sun,

we achieve, succeed, we collect,

bring it home. We sum.

All and sundry we want,

sinking ships in the sea.

When desires befall

don't let go of me.

My rationality, my practicality

is everywhere, in everything.

It tiptoed in and slithered itself onto me.

I noticed. I let it. I must have. I must have?

It was kilometers from here. I wrap myself

with that long road, and sit and tea.

I watch my assertion make sense of clouds,

of invisible longings inside - somewhere below

my lungs...

And I balance by growing flowers from my chest,

by feeling the heat of my hands, by planting

good seeds

spontaneously.
