Tunnels are Darkest.

So much raw correspondence.
Weeks of neck ache, a few days of odd tasting mouth
Blood and bleach
A smile so clean
But weak
Is yours.

You are not sure when you entered the world of passive smoking
But that fits.
Like a dentist’s glove.
And it sits uncomfortably
Like latex on your incisors.

The smile returns - but it lacks the victory
Recently earned.

Scowls and stomach aches tidily crammed
Barrels flicking and spitting water, the wrestling interior
Not by design
Exterior soaked, the smell of wet wood
Enjoy the roar
You are the tiger
You are the architect
You are the artist
An Escher, a series of waterfalls.

Fuck Physics
You never enjoyed Physics.
Enjoy this.
Enjoy the uphill struggles and going downhill.
Enjoy hills.
Because you need to build up your leg strength
By no means a mountaineer
Birds nest at the top of naked trees. Views from hills.

Remember this, and remember more
Enjoy this and enjoy more
Take off your neck brace and enjoy your chores.
