Empty Paper Towel Roll

It's as if I'm looking at a corner of the sky through a cardboard tube And I'm impressed Seems huge! This is my idea of bottomlessness Too small a slice of the night sky Through an empty paper towel roll Without even trying, I diminish infinity Knowing that wide winds find me From a place I'll never know I'm human, I know very little, I narrow my eyes With my life so far and all its conditions I squint at the sky From in my narrow tunnel vision My bruised up insides Can I abandon this position? See beyond my little life I sit and breathe slow at the end of the night And finally the sun cracks over the hill A brief glimpse through wide open air
