Walking Inside Yourself #2

i see my grandmother
and see my silver cage
with blood and the
slithering heart is
gone somewhere
in my body.
my heart feels
like my mom's
cooking mushrooms.
i see a piano lying down
feeling so sad because
my grandmother
is dead and i wish
she never died.
my weather feels dead
like my grandmother.
she's dead even though
she didn't want to die.

Walking Inside Yourself

i walk inside myself and
see a scared, spotted snake
slithering to the planet
saturn

the floor was shaking
as fast as someone
on a motorcycle

and i see a soufle
of fluffiness

a forest of words

i walk inside myself
and see a piano plucking
the keys out and getting
a tissue box

i walk inside myself and
see more and more melting
monkies mowing lawns
