My hair has exploded and new shadows set in.
My chest has ruptured and new ridges and valleys appear
to tell of tectonics I never knew existed beneath my skin.
My fingernails shave themselves away from the tips.
I learn of what I hold without having to keep grip.
There is nothing to confide in for I am confidence.
There is nothing to fear for I am love itself.
I am the entire spectrum of emotion all at once.
So I laugh tears and hug like poison,
throw punches as compassion crunches,
asphyxiate on oxygen and I grin when I cry.
I suck up the gases so I can know the air is clean
as I cut myself open to find the temples inside.
