[Freeform] Poetry "breath(e)"

breathe in

air:

nitrogen and oxygen

N2 and O2

(NO 2 breaths are the same)

scents:

baking bread, flowers, perfume

bad cologne and cigarette smoke

rotten food and rotten lives and things

that just went rotten

atmosphere:

cool breezes and warm heat

from the sun, from ovens

from the world, nature's oven

particles and pollens

dusts and cells and itty bitty things

you could never see and

you'd never want to see

and you don't, but isn't that how life is?

ignorance is bliss

ignorance in breathing

breathing in bliss

breathe out

repeat, go on, ad infinitum
