Description Your scent entered before you, as if the systems of shadows were in reverse.
Follow where you know you will go
Why can't you lead?
You're all going to the same place anyways, you say.
You and your shadows.
Shadows with rainbows in their eyes
and rubber bands on their wrists.
They're practicing for sharper objects, they say.
They might be only shadows, but when they bleed,
they cover everything with light.
Self sacrifice.
I would tell you to look, it's so beautiful,
but your eyes never quite open wide enough
to see
beauty in fallen trees.
Climb up and sail down
On the wind with borrowed wings.
Transparent painted designs, that catch your eyes only as they disappear.
They leave a trail of blue ink...
Follow it into the hall,
Footprints set in sand
And as the worm becomes the butterfly-
the sand becomes the stepping stone.
