A Night in the Woods

I let the depths of the earth swallow me like a fish in a pond,

Watching with intense eyes,

As the ripples withered into dark tranquility,

It took me like a moth to light,

I vigorously danced with ferns and scavenged with raccoons,

I swam with fish and ran with deer,

I lead a troop of ants to a chunk of a granola bar resting forgotten,

My mind was afire with understanding,

And I awoke anew!
