Day 246: Tremors
∴
look how the ground quakes…
you can see the waves in dirt,
swelling under planet skin,
like rippled mountains
and tides in the plaine.
feel these shivers
up through the leg
and stocked in the spine
like shock waves
and salsa swings
making everything in you
move.
move, with the earth’s
covered groove;
it is time.
it is time.
come out from your grave,
your closed, protective cave,
and sway,
rock,
like you were made.
remove the stone that seals you.
strip off what’s not the real you.
peeling bark,
standing stark,
looking at the ground
whereon you hold
a stiffened stance.
now feel these pulsing tremors
and dance.
