Lead Feather

Post Run Poetry.   Walking past manicured Sandy city lawns.



Lead Feather


the weight of a hearty soul
like a lead feather

this paradox assigned to me
I did not choose

each time I am deceived by my form
I appear to be a feather

but when I lift fine hairs to the breeze 
they do not carry me

instead the wind laughs
making ripples of static along my spine
I know I was there once

but I am irrevocably here.  Now.
weighted by this hearty soul
