May you hear
May the rumble of your stomach call your spirit from its empty journey
May you feel
May your muscles quake and wrench into all the ache at once
May you wake up
May you be jarred by your reflection
May the dryness of your throat whistle your infant song through you
May the overwhelming vacuum of you
Surround you
May stillness blanket you.
May your hair fall away from you in grief.
May words fall silent in your proximity
May birdsong wait for you to pass
May light bounce away from your eyes
May no breeze caress your ears
May oxygen stretch to thinness
Around you.
May every animal seek safety from you
May every drop of water leap from your lips
May every plant release phytotoxin and thorn against your tongue
May no tree inhale your breath
May no mountain allow you near
May every mushroom tell Its cousins
About you.
🧊:
May your families seek protection from you
May your children know never to trust you
May your mothers find new children to pass ancestral gifts on to
May your fathers grieve the loss of your spirits
May your siblings find enough in each other
Without you.
