Blending

what if I just welded
myself into place
and all but disappeared from view
like a fungus on a log gently decaying
what if I blended into the background
feeding myself with time
and with that which is inevitably transformed
by my presence and my appetite
what if I decided that the precipice of stillness
is where I prefer to reside from now on
would you come and connect with me
share my silence and transform the both of us
like fungus and algae blending into lichen
and leave the surface of perception
altered beyond recognition
