Exceptional a poem about looking for something more stationary by Aiden Wilhelm Free Form Poetry Contest contest entry

i move in a haze pinned under all this golden weight— i need something sharp, something cold  to cut me to the bone count my teeth, repeat after me feel it shine, on the edge of my seat let it hang, give it just a moment before it all shatters across calamity as all that came before to shape me, break me take me under downy wings and let me go, freefall back to it all feathered promises, always so light easy to ignite all lit up, forest fire find it in the ashes, first wildflowers of spring something warm, after all
