buglike, we burrowed into the solemn dark,
seeking stillness, remembering
the weight of the sun as it climbs.
but the air in that room was fuzzy
with the texture of rain, in the way a door
lives to be opened. and i am tearing paper
from the nest of my womb,
and sometimes the birds are singing,
with every moment, the world's beating heart.
