a river.
Swallow breath and Iron
Drink life in
like a sponge
soaking up the earth.
Swallow honey like warm syrup
flowing down your throat like
a river runs through
a rocky path
flowing over rocks
and rubble
feel yourself slip into the water.
Soft laps of bitter fluid
wave over your face
engulfing you in quiet silence
pebbles bounce off the top
of your head.
crystal fragments
of light
bounce off your irises
filling your vision with
harrowing rainbows.
a river.
