the car door slams
and then nothing -
silence echoes
across the rolling
green hills
as the sunrise
sets purple fire
to the sky.
breath escapes
in a long sigh -
     to leave perfection
     for the cage of the work place.

words picked apart
put me together again -
         I am committed.

sleep to dream of days
when the weights will fall away -
               nothing will keep us
