and then its just my neck and head and everything looks strange from this angle but very green the grass coming up and fighting for air and sunlight and then my mouth is gone and i can taste the earth and then my nose is gone and i can smell the earth and then my ears are gone and i can hear the earth the grass the tiny roots and how they work and talk to each other saying quit pushing and a million million voices of the earth and then my eyes are gone and i see the earth only my hair left for the air to tousle and then the earth has my hair too and i grow and i feel the little dike more like a brook gurgling on my left shoulder and the applause on my right and the slow slow but really quite fast spinning and i move and move and move with all thats upon me and theres a larger circle and i race with all the life upon me and the seas and the mountains upon me around and around the brilliant light always upon some part of me and we all move in many directions and i am the mother and harbor of things that are and i think of her just briefly and wonder what shell think when she finds out ive melted into the earth .
