Palm Reading
I saw the veins connecting lines inside your hands and wondered if trees
Wouldn't just absorb you if you dared
To climb them
I considered articulating this, but
Jumped, grabbed a limb, and flung myself upwards
Before I had the chance, rapidly
Emerging victorious in a one
Man race to the
Top
Haphazardly hanging off the trunk, I glanced down through a serendipitous
Parting of leaves framing your
Face
Staring up at me
Staring down at you
Smiling up at me
I considered diving straight down, but
Instead let go with one
Arm
Daring the moment to hold me still as perfection
Asking myself what profound thing anyone
Could possibly have to say about
This
Before tearing down the branches with as
Much recklessness, abandon, and care as anyone should
As they move towards their visible future
Staring up at them
Staring down at it
Smiling up at them
Wouldn't just absorb you if you dared
To climb them
I considered articulating this, but
Jumped, grabbed a limb, and flung myself upwards
Before I had the chance, rapidly
Emerging victorious in a one
Man race to the
Top
Haphazardly hanging off the trunk, I glanced down through a serendipitous
Parting of leaves framing your
Face
Staring up at me
Staring down at you
Smiling up at me
I considered diving straight down, but
Instead let go with one
Arm
Daring the moment to hold me still as perfection
Asking myself what profound thing anyone
Could possibly have to say about
This
Before tearing down the branches with as
Much recklessness, abandon, and care as anyone should
As they move towards their visible future
Staring up at them
Staring down at it
Smiling up at them
