I fall through the cracks
8 January 2016

I fall through the cracks
In between tiles that shudder
Winter’s ice-clad touch
I fall through the cracks
Dropping from the wall’s peelings
That autumn rain cast
I fall through the cracks
From one ledge to another
That summer clad beige

I fall through the cracks
Where the light clung to ceilings
White like spring’s jasmine

I fall through the cracks
As the air opens its pores
Sizzling mist around
I fall through the cracks
As the skies open their arms
Shedding me sunrays
I fall through the cracks
Between needles and clock’s face
As Time slowly dies

Her Scene – This is Who I Am Now
Rumi – You will not know me
