Crawling toward the Answer
We are like
the ants,
the flowers,
the stones.
Running around,
blooming beneath the sky,
sitting upon the graves with terrible force.
They crush us,
pick us up,
carve some words on our hardened bodies.
My tiny black, colorful, heavy brothers,
I love you all
as
mad
God
whirls.
