my scanner is out of ink

my scanner is out of ink
birds flitter and flutter
there's no telling
where I actually begin
and you end

dare the coming with hope
dare the falling to stop
dare tomorrow
not to come around
if you dare

there is a mad person
running around
telling people that snakes
will live forever
if they learn to speak

I and the sky roam
the eroding and the die
the why all is just a dream
folding all ending destiny
like fading laundry

buds and toads and pale skies
roll the dice we know
there is a breath
only the earth can hear
a balance spoken for

I love that last sentence!! The rest is like falling through the rabbit hole in Alice in Wonderland. Fantastic and full of meaning but difficult to know--until the end.
Love the imagination and the flow of words.
