Cygnus
boat raft bridge
across the milky way of white foam
milk
milk
blood
a
mouth
is
never
too
old
to
laugh
salt in linens
smell the sun
crisp
invigorate
even when the horse flies land
drive their spikes into flesh
everybody’s got to eat
trust
falling
into
existence
abundance already here already in us it feels
that good
when fear
lets go
