Virgin World

The world is brand new!

     everything in it exists

they all exist

everything was born now

  the green little moss between two round rocks

      the small hairy fibers of dust

the orange flame from this candle

the smooth nail on this finger

everything is new

     visiting for a first time

they all exist
violently

        enthusiastically

I have just been born

      how close is everything

               everything has a glimmer

I reach out…

 

 

          a virgin world.
