Still and Silent

November 7, 2011

I wish I had a place

To be still and silent

Where my body would turn to tumbles of roots and bark and branch

And I could unaffectedly view life walking by me,

A downed, knotty tree,

A part of the daily scenery,

Unmoving,

With my lack of potential to grow, a sad, finished fact.

As still as earth.

Still. Silent.
