To Whom It May Concern

The sky
Closer than close

This soil
So soft

Shoeless feet
Far from cold

Mosquitoes
Sucking sin

From within
You disintegrate

Scars
Underneath your skin

Sun
Rising in dreams

Brunette clouds
Curtaining moonlight

You’re envious
Of those fixed stars

The soil
So soft

You may lay down
And never wake up
