I had a dream one night
I had the hands of a god
I tried to reach down and touch the earth
But I was frozen in fear
From far, approached a figure
The Homeboy Aurelio
He took my hand in his, knelt,
And pressed it to the ground.
He said:
Think of moments where you felt not broken
understanding left unspoken
loving every lost sensation
pain and pleasure, numbness spreading
letting go of everything
you left behind you
anything you think is
waiting for you now.
