and the
hike
up and
down hills,
mushrooms trampled,
slipping
off
rocks.
that
familar
vortex
my ankle turning
and
the feeling of
being
watched.
i almost surrendered

i
peeled off
my skin
now
i am foolish
not even having
the most
basic
of things
through
the aching

i am
on the edge
but i hear nothing
i wait
my breath
no longer mine
there is light here
no color
i hear the door
being open

stopped
i live
for another
my action
is removed
from
my own
i have split
in two

he has brought me back
i remember why
i am
alive.

until
my heart
breaks
until i
revisit
that
familiar
longing
for
the
past.

was there a question about your life
or your death?
yes.

one hot night
my son and i fell asleep together
we were so close we were sticking.
i decided to get up and take a walk
up the hill
past the cemetary
in the dark.
two men grabbed me from the entrance of the canal walk.
one stabbed me, the other watched.
