…watching my smile float by…

so unemotional

so still

in my soul

that nothing needs to come out

right now

so I’ll put this strange peace into words

the peace I kept covering over

this entire time

the non-flickering flame

still burning

in the summer heat

in the summer routine

of sunset laziness

and quiet circles in my brain

while the dragonflies finally come out

those little dinosaurs

flitting around my toes and fingers

playing in the greenest grass

a basic and free endeavor

content with

watching my smile float by

in what I see
