If You'Re An Animal            
           You Need To Breathe            
                                          
                                       
                                          
 Imagine  Clear  Air  In   A  Cold  Grove 
                                          
                                       
                                          
   A Strong And Sovereign Connectedness   
 Is  Achieved.  The  Poison  Is  Removed, 
 Vented  Away. Maybe There Is A Scent  Of 
             Trees, Or Ferns.             
                                          
                                       
                                          
 I  Wake  Up Naked On  The  Shower Floor. 
 Its Early  In The Morning, I Hear Birds. 
 There  Is No Oxygen  Left -  The Air  Is 
             Too Damp And Hot.            
 The Most  Primal Of  Instincts  Makes Me 
   Crawl Through The Unknown Apartment    
 Toward A Slightly  Lighter Square On The 
                Dark Wall.                
 The  Window Is Hard  To Open,  But I Get 
 There.  Then  I   Slump  Half   My  Body 
                 Outside.                 
 Finally,  I   Draw   Air.   I   Breathe!
