a Quiver in the Dirt

I think it's safer for me
underwater

happier

if I let myself
to breathe

so I could
               think

so I could
               move

so I could
               love

so I could
               sacrifice

I would be

wasting a lot more of my time

than if I slept

down here

it's nearly as quiet
as outer space
