dendrosphere dreams
by Jessica Perini
Could we just make a rule —
Let’s be kind
Let’s stop
with the self promotion
Take a minute
to —
Honestly
Wholeheartedly
Openmindedly
Not-yet-taking-a-breath-for-the-next-sentence —
Listen
What I would give for a moment
of an active ear
satelliting my way
A thousand bucks
An endless loop of thanks
A tear for sure
Idk
A lot
No one teaches
such a valuable skill
Except the
birds
heads cocked
for the inching of ants
And
the tree trunks
in their standing
Stock still
Leaves
motioning bare intent
in subtle breeze
They know listening
Their trunks
a large bark of ear
pressed to the wind
