is it odd that there are certain things i can bring myself to do,
in some rooms at my house and certain things i dare not conceive
in other rooms at my house,
i am a stable and unstable thing
constantly failing at some things and succeeding
at other things,
the last time i called you ocean, you turned to dust in my mouth
when i tried to taste you as dust, you turned again to ice in my mouth
i tried to swallow and felt nothing but air, i misunderstood
then i figured you must be the vibrations i felt, constantly moving as energy
in my path, i felt fire in my belly and when i bent to see if it was you
i hit my head against a rock then i was sure you were the rock
just before my sight turned, to numbers and shapes and words
then i became aware that you are everything i can grasp within my breath,
and turn into a holy pursuit.
