departures

all the excitement there can be 

is in me 

my brain on fire I cannot add or subtract anymore

loosing the faculty of staying close to yourself.

there is a huge nail in my tire and it drives me crazy 

not knowing how it happened 

or where. 

what is so special about today? 

I'm tracing back each thought

in all of them, you and God 

together

perfectly sealed like a can of tuna in water

who am I to separate the two of you?

my cat, up and down the stairs

following me everywhere

she knows the way: 

the closer you stay, the sooner the escape
