I will pull myself
from the tug of curled grassblades
as root after root snaps from my limbs
and recoils into the
sanctuary of the soil

I will retrieve my instrument
from the gnarled bush
that has kept it in tune
(to the key of the sun)
and corrected its imperfections
however slight

Though the sun will never hear this song.

When everything is engulfed
in shimmering silver
I will stand at the edge of the wood
playing chords that are beyond me
giving sound to the breath of the air
awaiting the silken moonbeam webbing
to reward me its caress
melting me away
taking me home
with one hundred-thousand gentle strokes

There is no music.  Only the reverberation of a continual flow.


--Jace!
