it is an unpopular thing to be a satiated cancer cell,
to want less in a world that runs on the panting exhale
of those chasing more.

oblivious to the deafening silence,
Leopold is following skunk tracks
through the snow,

and i am trying to remember
the last time i was brave enough
to follow a question

all the way to its answer.

Thanks for reading. Please clap, follow me or enjoy another poem.
