there are times in my life

sometimes, i wish i could be a single celled organism,
or maybe an aquatic creature,
like a sand crab, or jellyfish.
a jellyfish...how crazy are they?
no bones, brain, heart, etc.
but they LIVE!
and EAT!
and SWIM!

i want to live in tide pools, and make friends with the sea anemones.



a bird with a nest in the very center of the grand canyon
living, being, breathing, in the earth's stomach.
this planet's heart and soul.

no school tomorrow

maybe i won't set my alarm clock,
open my blinds,
and let the rays of sunlight peak though my window,
until my body can't deny that it is time to wake up for the day.
