kosher salt
as the word, empathy, is introduced
all that stale breath leaves lungs
it flows through the back of the fan
that has just been cleared of dust
as the word, empathy, is introduced
we see one another as seawater,
pushed substance; iodized rock salt
begone through our backs into air
as the word, empathy, is introduced
a violet vapor takes his thumbs
from my ears, and your mouth!
so less full of black crystals

sublime.
embodiment
of empty
with your others
a start
of a new phase
in the artist/writer life?
I love how you make the journey from stale breath to violet vapor. Beautifully written!
A baptism!
