Singularity

Do you sometimes want to wake up to the singularity

we once were?

so compact nobody

needed a bed, or food or money

nobody hiding in the school bathroom

or home alone

pulling open the drawer

where the pills are kept.

For every atom belonging to me as good

Belongs to you. Remember?

There was no Nature. No

 them. No tests

to determine if the elephant

grieves her calf or if

the coral reef feels pain. Trashed

oceans don't speak English or Farsi or French

would that we could wake up to what we were

when we were ocean and before that

to when sky was earth, and animal was energy, and rock was

liquid and stars were space and space was not

at allnothing

before we came to believe humans were so important

before this awful loneliness.

Can molecules recall it?

what once was? before anything happened?

No I, no We, no one. No was

No verb no noun

only a tiny tiny dot brimming with

is is is is is

All everything home
