The air is full of ideas


Yesterday I spilled my guts out to an invisible god,
And left him to do the untangling,
Left him to purge me of my spiderweb wrinkles.

I told him to make me young
And rid me of my prejudices.
Lace me with childlike euphoria,
Stitch the canyons in my forehead.

Yesterday I poured my muscles into an all-knowing god,
And left him to do the tweaking,
Left him to strip them off my crevassed bones.

I told him to make me young.
