Can You Blow Me?

(For @just.call.me.eve)

The silk cotton seeds know how to trespass the barbwire.
The silk cotton seeds know where to stick, and where not to.
The silk cotton seeds know when to fly high in the sky,
And when to kiss the ground.
The silk cotton seeds know how to make a touch tender.
Crossing the borders the silk cotton seeds know
How to spread life.
When everything was dried up in the late winter
When the earth was dying for a drop of water
Those were the silk cotton trees
That bloomed in red Putting fire in the sky.
For their inflamed tide
Spring had to come.
Now just before the rain comes,
They know how to sing a song of love and spread it in the air.
Dear, can you blow me to fly like the silk cotton seeds?
Can you bring me home
On your rumpled hair or the undetected folds of your cloth?

Dear, can you blow me?
