Please Ask For Directions...

can you please hear more quitly
       can you taste with no spice.
              can you please hear my smell
                    can you lie down upright?
I don't ask for much,
       just taste all around
           breath in all the noise
                    and talk without sound.
can you smell all the colors
        and see without sight
                just hear when its quite
                       and touch the sunlight
please stand up while sitting
         bend down while upright
                 can you switch right and left
                       and then shrink to new hight.
 Of course you can! You know I am right...
                now look without seeing, and lie down upright.

    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to float to school in cars.

    Sleeeeep. 

    It whispered in her ear.
    Her petals shivered.
    Its breath ran slowly
    down
    her stem and
    tickled a leaf.
