Atmosphere
The bubbles break free
lines intact, and wind
gently away through the
thin air shimmering, green
as a new morning
lives
alive in there
touched for a time
by another's finger -
different thought and mode,
memory absorbed
brings a change of colour,
an altered code
but
essential still
though as yet unhealed;
circumference can never
be amid the quiver of
each flex and bounce a
mandatory experience
and
I know you
as you read, know
we will neither of us
break
at the same speed
therefore
I say forever
touch but keep your line
intact
as you stretch,
billow,
as you aim
for the circular
flow.
