Florality

I was swimming through the waves of air, as the mertwink-le that I am, feeling the weighted texture and traction of movement through the material of the atmosphere

I was floating up the red stairs

The hallway was a portal.

I could feel all the cells teaming with life, pulsing through my particular human suit.

I walked through time-space tubes like Donnie Darko wormholes.

Kenilworth Aquatic Garden, early March 2020 by S. Turner

I found beauty in the last vestiges of earthen decay that is now manifested as early spring; pre-resurrection preparation

The moon swirls into earthy pubescent fullness

The air is fresco crisp, the soil smells fragrant and new

I curl onto myself in the comfort of budding blooms.

The light grows like crystals
