From Leaf To Leaf

All the rebirth of life and of the human spirit.

I’m gonna fall. From leaf to leaf. Separating from my former self at each new height. Reflecting my surroundings as only life knows how. My flesh is abound with the heartbeat of a million little fibers. It’s what binds us all. Truth be told that there are far more senses than we are willing to admit. Truth being the most underrated of them all. I continue to drop from suspension to flexibility. Passing my ripple as effectively as the warmth of light. I dare not stop my decent. For if I were to cease I would evaporate to an oblivion. Pay me master of time and let your death be the coin of exchange. The greenest of greens is my home of choice. Falling is only a perspective that requires power to enable it. I give the command to wash away all that equates emptiness. You know what you don’t want but that doesn’t mean you know what you want. The opposite isn’t always the same.
