Walk the Sky

The walk back should be firm.
When the sky moves with the man
The ground falls into softer spaces.

It's as if the clouds are gluttonous,
Sweaty and fat, bending downwards.
We need a mindless wind,
A wet lip pressing into this afternoon,
Coaxing the thick stubborn air
Into an irrational rebirth,
Arousing the awesome power of the night
