Stand me up so I can see
My brow's horizon through shielded palm
Peering forward
Catching glimpses of advances
Ankles begin to hurt
Leaning towards visibility
Foolishness
Embed heels into posture
And cast eyes
Rest to allow eternity’s message
Non arrival
Non answer
Instead develop breathing limbs
Lift
And take your hands off me while doing so
Find it yourself

I will stand you up so you can see
Beyond your own flesh
With me
You will hold future visions
Floating, unharmed
Calm will ease and let recover
To quiet darkness
To inhale
To exhale
To discover.

I love it - who wrote it?
Do you mean Erica's or mine?
I guess Erica wrote hers.
I wrote mine.
^_^
The two voices go well together, lovely.
