infinite jerm

im allowed to notes app on the train

i can do anything

i am limitless

infinite

my thoughts are in the trees

and the birds have come down

to perch on my ribs

heres the thing:


when i have a reason to feel bad

i can feel bad

and speak on it

and say what i need to say

and hear what i need to hear

and still feel bad


and life is so short

and this recovery longer than i like

and to err against someone so good

is no small thing

but this thing

against everything else of ours

is just that

small


and its a tiny pill

a pinch and plunge

that shrinks the tumor;

heals the sick


that and time


like time

i am unlimited

thankfully

my regret is not


i staunch the wound

but not the pain
