The All and None of This

I need air, not just to breathe, but for its open sky.

I need water, not just to drink, but to float,

To swim,

To cry.

I need food, not just to live, but for its fuel of time,

To be,

Of being with.

To make I need the share of air, of water, food, of you.

To love I need the all and none of this,

The kiss of life,

The touch of dew.


. . .


My nature is as much the world around me, as the world within...
