Moving in thick undergrowth,
floating in a roiling black sea,
pushing elephants over the Pyrennes,
stacking a wall of slippery stones,
I am not surprised at the struggle
this body tastes.
Suddenly, my expectation
is served to hungry crows
on a smooth silver tray.
The sun shines through me,
because I am empty,
because I have fed them.
