6.14.2004 Flat i. Soft I was, flat and empty, punched open by grief it drained me whole. I was damp with it so I slept, ants exploring the arm curled beneath my head. And you were there to stand guard, keep the flat sad girl safe. ii. "She's not worth it." "I know." "This isn't the same." "I know." "All pain is the one pain. It's our truth. All grief the same grief, here, let me sew shut this gaping seam that has opened along you." "I know, I know, let me cry, let me leak. It will do the flowers good." iii. I read "Siddhartha" to find peace. Herman Hesse is a mystery to me I can't feign attention any more. It tired me. I fell asleep. And you were there to stand guard, keep the flat sad girl safe. iv. "I shed so much." "I know." "I give up so much to this mute horror of walls." "I know." "Please don't leave me alone. Please don't make me go inside I can't be inside again." "I know. I'll sit here, I'll stand guard. You fill up again I'll be here." v. Go outside where the ducks find happiness in sludge worms grass maneuvering big improbable bodies through the grass thick orange ankles paddling the soil towards us liquid eyes hoping we can give them something. Sit here; stay with me. We'll watch the little ones grow, the big ones get older. posted by Rach on Monday, June 14, 2004 Post a Comment
