# I woke up like this

- black mambas pouring out of my mouth

but still chasing rainbows on morning skies

Prayers are good

for an old hermit crab

limping and crawling from under a rock.

I could ask Guan Yin for a myriad of arms

or branches – if it were to turn into a tree,

or ask the tall big-eyed alabaster Buddha at the art gallery

to help me catch my breath

while I’m drinking my tea

Still feeling what is not there

- as if I missed the northern lights firing up a whole polar night

while I’m trying to reach out one of my phantom limbs

to an open hand
