i crawled

ever

so

slowly

 

one

centimeter

at

a

time

 

searching

seeking

nourishment

on

the

earth’s

surface

 

my

destiny

 

i found it

 

there

it

was

in a

tree

within a

cocoon

of me

 

i

went

within

blackness

dark dark.

 

i remained still

 

then emerged

a Bright Being

with wings of gold and magenta

 

and began to fly discovering miles and miles of uncharted territory
