Boomerang pt. II: Root

Folder: 
Extended Poetry

The earth is but a bare seed

Planted in every mind

To depend on us

To grow upon us

We learn about it

Every soiled step

They hand on every limp word

Like a quarter hangs on to pockets

Every limpid word

Frozen into poetry

Dripping icicles

Roots are spread

Grip the soil tight

Boomerang spiral

Cuts through the breeze like butter

Cuts through the open wound of honesty

Boomerang whistle

Buzzes on like a kazoo chorus

Pavilion chorus group

In a busy park

In a busy heart

With busy blood.
