The turtle announces

in the storm  from the  ash and smoke, the dragon comes down
seeking her approval , The koi Present their beauty,
Each scale reflecting a lifetime of choices
A colony of consciousness rejecting the simulation
Abandoning Cities of soot and sunder
Projecting through her shell, she announces:

welcome home time tourist ; warmth waiting inside.

She proclaims:
Where is the proof that you are awake?

The nose squeaks and whimpers dreaming the future sorrow of the end

Splitting wood

Firing through the night
exhausting fight with bone cold
Splitting slivers from the whole
Catching a vein and running wide
a ladder Connecting now to later
Splitting time down the middle
Missing rungs from the bottom
Finding another way.
