lazy eyelids holding the
icy green
craving sleep
invalid beauty
crush your vixen
see the reaction
unless your blinded by the angular sun.
Oh! and the fruit which was nurished and plucked
drips from the corner of your mouth
savor the taste
stand on the rock
splitting the river and decide
let go
give
move
prove it.

i do a lot of thinking when i'm alone and in nature but it gets so exhausting trying to imagine what you want/are going to do, in your life.
