a blade of grass for each and every shoulder
a socket filled with ink for single eye

a drop of ocean’s perfume for the breathing
an innocent and feather-coated sigh

a sturdy cap for rondes in tremble kneeling [fr. rond]
a never breaking willow branch for back

a soothing fountain for the head in healing,
a Squamish rock for chest, a climber’s track

a twist of fate, a turn from down to upwards
once falling stars, now shooting arrows, swift

a permanence, existence out and inwards
eternal vessel sailing through the rift
