Palm Reading

from Vestigialist by Liam Kingsley

lyrics

I saw the veins connecting lines inside your hands and wondered if trees

wouldn’t just absorb you if you dared

to climb them.

I considered articulating this, but

jumped, grabbed a limb, and flung myself upwards

before I had the chance, rapidly

emerging victorious in a one

man race to the

top.

Haphazardly hanging off the trunk, I glanced down through a serendipitous

parting of leaves framing your

face

staring up at me,

staring down at you,

smiling up at me.

I considered diving straight down, but

instead let go with one

arm,

daring the moment to hold me still as perfection,

asking myself what profound thing anyone

could possibly have to say about

this,

before tearing down the branches with as

much recklessness, abandon, and care as anyone should

as they move towards their visible future

staring up at them,

staring down at it,

smiling up at them.
