on repeat
peel your chin from the canyon,
drown your heart in rock salt,
and let the glow pour into every cleft.
feel the rumble in thunder.
let your feet meet the earth.
stand in symphony.
baptize yourself in rain.
cover your ears
and watch with marvel at the world.
let this breath be new.
strip the heat from your mouth
and gaze like linchpin.
rid your body of brittle.
soak in devotion...
