If It’s Only Breath

 

 

 

 

Think about the air you set in motion.

 

If it’s only breath.

 

If it’s more, if it’s a word, if it breaches an ear,

if the core of your breath bores

into the world body:

think about that.

 

Think about bringing the knowledge of waiting.

Before a full sentence, the skill of the pause.

Saying no. Or yes.

 

It isn’t easy.

It isn’t social.

 

You may begin to understand composure.

You will enjoy the mastery.
