Enter Poem TitleRoots All Over : Life

written by Poet : EC


Maybe one more
yes, one more tapering root
maybe tying it to the ground is the answer
yes, tying it to dirt is like gluing it
maybe nobody can ever sever this root
yes, nobody of everybody is strong enough
maybe then you will live forever
yes, a soul, a body tied to dirt is imperishable

maybe even turning into nothing but roots
all wings gone
all of you tied up
living forever - never getting loose
no more skies - all of it dirt
