Inside Out


Last night

I was able

to outgrow myself …

again

for the very

first time

 

Life was unspun

in the moment

relayed

where tomorrow

and yesterday

rhyme

 

Competing with

the future

the sky

and the moon

my wandering

complete

 

Turning my

destiny

inside out

my nature

expanding

—replete

 

(Dreamsleep: February, 2024)
