Roller Blades
January 6, 2025
As my blades bend the symmetry
of the Earth’s floor,
my mind coasts into a state of harmony.
I see flamboyant color,
as if looking through a kaleidoscope.
Effervescent aroma envelops my beak,
as if flowers had just bloomed.
And I hear birds tweet with bravado,
as if I had never listened before.
The blades are to my psyche
as soil is to bare feet.
