Forget about the lights on the
Blinking
Winking screen.

Please
Please
Put the face cream down-
And just sit.

Stop running around after lost socks
Stop talking about less than nothing
Stop thinking on a flat line of getting ahead.

Just please please sit
And rip open your ribcage
And look inside:

Who have you become?

You with the closed fists and love
Draining from your veins like water.
It's running into the street for rats to scurry through.

Dear child,
There is no guilt here in this examination:

Only a kiss
To remind you of your humanity.
A Pinprick on on your fingertip
For you are mortal.
A smile
For you are compassionate.
A whisper from soft lips at your neck
For you are vulnerable.
And silence
For you are strong
And you are not long
For here.
