perigee-syzygy of the Earth-Moon-Sun system

weighed
against the weight of the world
the grass felt strange
I could not tell if it was the grass
or my hands
whose composition has changed
so much
that the hill of Earth
felt so foreign

after reading a poem you have 3 options to “turn the page”
“RANDOM” – takes you to a random poetic expression
#hastags – take you to another random poem with the same theme or motif
#category – takes you to a random poem in the same category
“no one can step in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and they are not the same person” – possibly Heraclitus
just as no one can step in the same river twice, no one can have the same experience of “as common as carbon” twice
