Zywa In the woods

If you are lucky, you will grow
slowly
sheltered by family

You begin at the beginning:
networking
in the ground

You eat slowly, make
every muscle fibre strong
inch by inch

and form a firm skin
to become a giant
as then

when there were no people yet
and you could count life
in ages, in thousands

of new moons, in years
that still are breathing
in the woods
