A Hammock and Me and Time

vos-afetos-dormir-de-rede-2.jpg

a hammock and me and a couple of years:

a time when I could

fall

and

become


enveloped and rocked

back


and


forth

and

not

become a

cocoon and

not

become a pea,

but just become six.

a hammock and me and

a couple of more years:

a time when I could

fall

and

become

an inch closer to the

ground and

not

be a

purchased item

within

a plastic bag swinging

back

and

forth

or

something

to be

morphed

into, but just sixteen.

a hammock and me and

many more couple of years:

is a time when I could

fall

and

really fall

to the

ground

and

not

become a

twenty-one-year-old,

but instead something more like:

a

cocoon,

a

pea,

a purchased-

item

within

a

plastic

bag swinging back and
forth, or something to
be morphed into.
