the moon may be a sloth
but even sloths make it
to the tops of their trees at some point
if they survive the climb.

these past weeks may
have been finding me
a lost astronaut on that cold, crater covered cast,
holding me in place with orbit
but i knew one day
i would see earth in the full light of the sun.
and these days my skin sizzles like it did
when i was in that cactus land
but the desire to disappear into the dirt has gone.

i'm getting a running start
and leaping into that sweet earth
atmosphere, trying to make it
without turning to ash,
hoping for nothing.
i'll be grateful with either ending.

this maddness
this uncertainty.
"All is well."
