A Little Something Extra

My breath can warm a small space

I begin to not be able to breathe, though so warm.

I exit

The balance—keeping the space closed off enough to keep it warm, and

keeping it open to enable oxygen.

enough

Sometimes it happens

naturally

so i wonder it’s ever a problem.

Sometimes, can’t make it happen

I breathe in the small warm space, I stop being able to breathe

I must breathe

have to accept the cold to breathe

for a little while, until

i am full! I am full! of oxygen, and I can breathe underneath the covers again, for a little while,

i can try again.

Some things are worth trying again and again

Sometimes,

back and forth,

can’t breathe,

I’m cold,

i can’t breath,

I’m cold

Maybe I need remember

breathe…..slow.

I want my small spaces

somewhere within my realm of capability. somewhere I can have full consciousness.
