Jeffree Skewes - Leave behind


every single piece
collected
all the spares
their just in cases

strapped on roofs
in the shed under others
stairs no one wanted
they're not 10's

cut the habits these
worn as robes preach
their long-gone chances

only bones seen
remind us
they're kept inside
the same every year

I'll gather now on-demand
spring a life going forward
raise the young

pass them on
release those twigs
watch the gliding
from the mountains

stick around
take a stroll
you just be
here

in the morning
