Must

How do sprouts know when to lift their heads and shout?

Like cool marble on the belly of a bare foot
baring the tenacity of cancer
betraying the lunacy of a blood moon
pulling syllable fossils and making them whole,
this is part the art of writing.

The other part? Reflection:
a reader a writer and the words between
creating a stream of consciousness
or a face peering into clear water only to see itself
for some there is nothing else
for me there is nothing else.
