I Erupt
It’s so quiet…
The machinery of the universe is so quiet
I forget it’s there.
When I lean forward to sniff a lilac
or gulp before uttering an apology
or suddenly remember a birthday
I don’t hear whirring or beeping
so I forget these movements are
as divinely directed as meteor showers,
as powerful as earthquakes.
The movement of life is so quiet I forget…
… I forget …
I do not act
I erupt!
