Breath 3 of 3 3/10/12

Sneezing is

a high diving board breath,

slowly edging up the breath ladder,

standing up there nasally,

at the top of the breath possibilities,

waiting almost absentmindedly,

visually gathered in a distant stare,

then with full-blown

but subtle in-breath commitment

blast into maximum breath free fall

and boom, acceleration

to a hundred miles per hour,

followed by reentry and impact,

then post breath physical recovery.

(and check for missing parts!)

The feelings accompanying

being-cross-examined breaths,

with throat glitches

and quickened inhales

and fly fleeing exhales

over dry mouth smacks,

while in the background

there are heart beat overtones

beckoning louder to chorus with

the stiff breaths

of edge-wacky uneasiness.

I watch shallow breath television

until the saliva pool helps kick start

from coma breath to recovery.

A reservoir of words

will be looking for a type of

fast breath departure.

For there is a breath

that will give way

to aiding crescendo responses,

towards fury and raised voices.

A compressing breath

and sometimes a speedy-ness

upon each lip serviced expression.

In the big picture,

breath is the divine mother

of any one's breath surrender,

to the god that loves

and the in-breath offering,

given to you

in return . . .
