Finding Me

Finding Me

 

In the woods

sky above and ground below

feet on a dying tree.

 

Thirsty leaves drenched

in the wetness of the sky’s love.

 

Fingers trace a throbbing vein,

brown, green, and the space in between

filled with lines and letters

words and pictures-

characters of a film.

 

Breaths of time

Sighs of decay

in the moment

trapped…

between here and there.

Stillness between heartbeats

punctuating fleeting permanence.

 

Have I found the face of Life

Or the soul of Death?

  1. I loved this. It reminds me of my own stabbing attempts at poetic clarity many years ago. The video is capturing in its simplicity and no-nonsense focus on nature and the subject (you?). Keep up the good work, Namgay.
