cicadas song

The crystal candy coordinator

shaves the ice off the block

so that you may savor

whichever flavor

your heart desires,

in coordinating the efforts of salvation

the restriction yields the narrow gaps

through which your body must pass

in order to escape,

and yet,

the walls close in

and you are left in a chamber

of utter darkness

at which point 

your body begins to vibrate and hum,

and just as 

from the buzzing

shrill of cicadas song

eventually finds the seams

and cracks it’s own carapace

so to shall the internal

light producing energy

given to you at birth,

find a way to penetrate

the darkness with which you struggle.
