Mass of choice

From Johnny Crabcakes and others’ challenge:

I feel the velvety weight

4am

it anchors salty eyelashes to my cheeks

the sharp weighty jaggedness

of jangled thoughts

rushing through my head

trying to escape.

the heaviness of moonlight

tracking across the back of my hand

pressing deeply

into our memory foam mattress.

The weight of air

infinitesimal.

My lungs fill.

In.

Out.

Rising and falling.

a fingertip away

the cold, unwrinkled pillowcase

is exponentially weightier

as each breath diffuses into the night.
