he fell in love

it had ceased to be a mountain


pressure in his legs from god


life in all its cuts and bruises


hard breathing just our way


then he walked off clean and free


air of strawberries, cream, mint


invisble as everything else until


he wished himself back into being


out there, in nowhere, 1 mile off


distant ground, color of grocery bags


so afraid happiness wakes us up
