Balm
Is is not within the confines of space?
No chair supports the formation of thought.
I move beyond page
and shimmer toward
the unknown.
I perceive its edges rather than
see it substance.
I feel it permeate rather than
smell its fragrance--
The sense of it, balm upon my calloused feet--
Tenderness, you are
the cushion of my soul.
