Independent

you’re a branch with soil flung out to full embrace
shaped like irises and little stars
a prism of iridescence
a mortal fold of nearly perfect quirky mosaic blown
and stabilized by fluctuations
you have a strong will
a string of strong principles
adorning your soul
you are independent

you are independent!

You are your own sun it seems
God Bless how you glow
yet even sun needs the universe; its matter
to glow
you don’t despise aid
you don’t despise dependency
you know you are human
and that what makes it real

flourishing in notes and letters
you are frailty and strength
you are conformist to non-conformity
yet an idyllic in old mores of noble spawn

singing you and me
it’s nice
we are independent beings
not independent of each other

like harness and steel
sword and ink
opposites and smmiliarities
attached in hips

press me gently
you and I are both mud
and mud is not independent of air
water and dust

God gave us a carousel of elements
drinking of all potencies pure
we are independent souls
bound to two worlds

sleep is a afterlife
dream is tomorrow
love is a vein-work
we washed oceans with foam
we live on soft shores
leave with tempests afloat ▬
