and see they are alive.

You might look at people and flowers

and see them.

You might look at pain

and see it.

You might feel like a rabbit in an empty hall.

You might create something

when you’re inspired

and feel like it’s a part of you.

You might find your soul and lose it.

how the sun shines on corn

and the moon on an insect
