Like a snake swallowing an egg

I unhinge my jaw

And take in all of

What you have to say

 

And I also

Try to swallow It whole

Eyes open

Unflinching

 

I feel my skull expand

As your words

Force there way into

My brain cavities

 

I am also just as certain

As that snake is

That this is how Nature

Intends me to be

 

And I commit to

Running through the length

Of my body

The energy of another

 

Unable to move

Until it brings shape

To Who I Am

Tomorrow
