inspiration and expiration

my soul is breathing

i can feel it expanding and contracting

with the shallow rhythm of someone who just ran too fast

 

it sweats a thin oil

that lines my stomach and ribcage

i can feel it sliding around

 

it is hot and flushed

with pink cheeks, blue eyes, and shaking hands on its knees

it wants to sit down

but there is no room

it already fills every corner of my being
