about

bloomed up like a present from the dirt
from red mud, and hot sun,
glass to refine, then shift front-
cause you can only take so much,
running past these walls that clutch.
if you’re losing all this skin to come clean,
i mean, then they can see ya wrongs from the street,
everything ill, and vaporous.
and you haven’t been watered so,
wrap up the soil to go-
there’s been whispers of streams
they’re out there, i mean
any step can take you close
even with a soul in tow,
even if you’re moving slow,
there’s been whispers of streams
they’re out there, i mean
every step can bring you close.

don’t you know?
(if what you feel, is new,
that’s just first bloom)

who are you? where are you growing to?
spirits warring & you won’t stand down
steady lodged between beast & god
who are you? where are you growing to?
as you inch toward the clues,
bless whatever gets you here - and - to

so no longer contain it
you’d best sup untainted
you were not watered so
good taking the soil to go,
now you’ve freed up on the wind
with skylines to skim
spare the oil, don’t dim again
just- notice all their measurement ends with this
only stand to mark your heights by the beams you lift
re-pot, reach out, rip off
what kept you bibbed,
& always disrespect a lid
all things happen like they gon’ do
with reverence, to renew
keep your hands by your sides
& enjoy the the ride, the growth is the star tonight

don’t you know?
(if what you feel, is new
that’s just first bloom)

who are you? where are you growing to?
spirits warring & you won’t stand down
steady lodged between beast & god
who are you? where are you growing to?
as you inch toward the clues,
bless whatever gets you here - and - to

bless whatever gets you here - and - to
first bloom, first bloom
