finally moving

i had another ghost press

i was dreaming that i was asleep

in my room and on my bed

only to be awakened by a levitating force

lifting me

instead of proving its weight on my chest

forcing me from the warm surface of my mattress

breaking the permeable temperature membrane

as i enter chilled stream of the Boston winds

i foolishly allowed through the window

i am passively stiff within these elements

floating uncontrollably

but from my out of body view

the birds eye locks on the tips of my feet

piercing the downed comforter 

latching to the forgranted warmth

that now fights to keep me grounded

...i acknowledge and let go...

seeking the journey

 down to travel the serpentine

sprint the straightaway

and feel human

ready and set

i let go

only to fall back down to my bed

with eyes wide open

i release a few gasps of unidentified words

wait till the paralysis melts away

so i can fall as leep again

[maybe it was just the fermenting rice i accidentally ate]
