Dream Big

Exist on the largest scale:
swallow the moon with each inhale,
change space when you breathe out.
Can a word from you change anything?  Speak it

and learn.  In particular time
this moment — your moment —
ought to shake the basalt
below your feet, though you’re standing still.

No more the tiny life, no more the exceptional
detail.  Stretch for something greater.  Thrill
to fail.  Thrill without success.  Leave behind your
dinosaur bones.  Erase the shrunken you.
