A Hanging Rope

I am a broken window pane
I am a musty book
I am a rotten staircase
I am the babbling brook
I am the roaring waterfall
I am the fallen spruce
I am the skull of last year's prey
I am the hangman's noose.
I am the rocky moutainside
I am a wounded dog
I am the frostbite on her cheeks
I am a screaming hog
I am a curious rabbit
I am the golden flight
I am the freedom in your lungs
I am the blinding light
I am the lillys' early bloom
I am the witch's glare
I am the rotten cedar
I am the cobra's stare
I am the sun, the moon, the galaxy
I am the stars that light the way
I am the wishes on the fallen
I am a restless ghost. A stray
...
I am the roaring thunder
I am the flash of light
I am the flooded riverbeds
I am the god of fright
I am the raging rapids
I am the undertoe
I am the bubbling magma
I am your strongest foe
I am the blood on canine teeth
I am the final breath
I am the blazing forest fire
I am the bringer of death
I am the frozen caribou
I am the dying salmon
I am the alpha of the pack
I am the ultimate famine
I am the melting glacier caps
I am the devastation
I am the drying riverbeds
I am deforestation.
...
I am the sleeping lioness
I am the dreaming hound
I am the full moon out at sea
I am the lost and found
I am the calm of a winter's night
I am the glowing eye
I am the thaw and harvest
I am the hardest goodbye
I am the wind within your hair
I am the calm of hope
I am the warmth of your embrace
I am a hanging rope
