and all types of skull designs!

i.
come forth come forth

the geraniums will issue dust.

there is some wind in the trees.
it shakes boughs and rustles leaves and is encrypted at the cellular level. it can be imagined as the divisions in a leaf and the rooms of a house, the way buildings and streets are distributed against the surface.
green walls. white walls, vascular systems and cob webs blowing in a breeze created with fans and air-conditioning, inviting rest and coaxing tomorrow from idylls hidden in a well of darkness (all starry and made to last forever, like the middle part heaven).
they render the outstretched spine as sonorous bells and the air as rippling woodwinds.
even the simplest forms have that musicality ascribed to them (it has a chemical basis).
more complex things, like bones, living animals and old paintings become symphonic, but breathing and electricity are just types of humming or whistling.
ii.
rising in complexity, rising is simplicity: the laughter, the turning heads with blinking eyes.
the distortion of the octave into something which is lifted past that original wavelength.
iii.
you are still alive and want to go out, but prefer elevators and bulldozers, wandering through hallways that other shades have abandoned for milkier shores.
even the crippled can walk.
when paint falls off the truck, it races back into its container, conquering gravity and time in those few seconds before the sun rises and you are borne away, again.
