I'm learning to abandon the world,
Before it can abandon me.
Already I have given up the moon,
And snow, closing my shades
Against claims of white.
And the world has taken
My father, my friends.
I have given up melodic lines of hills,
Moving to a flat, tuneless landscape
And every night, I give my body up,
Limb by limb, working upwards
Across bone, towards the heart.
But morning comes with small reprieves
Of coffee and birdsong
A tree outside the window
which was simply shadow moments ago
Takes back it's branches twig
By leafy twig,
And as I take my body back,
The sun lays it's warm muzzle in my lap,
As if to make amends
