Melt, & Become Alive

Rusted chain link 

red and gnarly 

starting to die 

inside the forest

Eating up the ochre 

into a gradient green-

folding

damaged metal

to a glistening ivy

Melt- 

decay to deciduous

lay you to loam

gone to purest brush

-Become- 

Red to green

from death to breaths 

still to beating chest 

Alive
