the birds out of the body
when we at last let them go
fluttering out from our joints
and muscles as we had every
beast and creature when we
didn’t need them anymore
filling the world with objects
and the traffic of life
when we traded the soul
for the body when we lost
the difference between them
when we forgot the time
before birth and the time
after death only then
in the darkness could we
speak the first words
out of our own human hearts
