I glide in salty, rain-drenched seas,

Kindred to each fish

And each molecule of water.

It’s another death and I

Can’t wait to see

How it begins.

I swim through ochre-grey skies,

Blind and all-seeing.

Flying like a bat, falling like a god.

It’s another me and I

Can’t wait to see

What I will become.

I burn 37 miles toward center,

Dirt filling spaces between cells,

Like me, yearning to dissolve.

It’s another life and I

Can’t wait to see

How it ends.
