The Dangle - a photo on Flickriver

The Dangle

            Like a hidden secret 
A frozen dance
A laugh in the face of gravity
It is inevitable that the surrounding leaves will caress you.
That your essence will seem like ephemeral magic
In between it all
Your biggest fear is that
In your next life, you'll be 
Reincarnated 
Not as something that hangs down 
Weightless and whimsical
But instead as something 
Growing up from the ground
With a heavy mass 
And a constant faltering
Dependent on the physical self
Which will fail you more each day.
