"How much does your head weigh?"

How much does your head weigh?

And how much for the heart? 

How much for the thoughts

That linger 

Leaving breathless

Hiking trails in the 

Mind, how much, how heavy?

We pull and pinch 

Away the weight 

We curse, we plea

Beg not to stay.

The ounce of triumph

For a pound of flesh

The weight to go

We beg and beg 

The weight is good 

Oh weight we curse, 

Break up with notions

Leave them first.

Leave those there, 

Alongside shame  

Washed away by summer rains

Washed away right down the drain.
