hooking every root
snagging every stone
Worms wiggling and squirming more graciously
than me
I am used up! I am burnt out! I am done! I no longer want to be!
Every thought of No creating more No's
Every scream to Stop creating more Stop's
Every cry for Help creating more Helplessness
Pick me up and shake me lightly
As if a tiny pebble tossed in a wandering stream
