at the edge of humanity’s consciousness a river flows through guitar chords of thoughts, rocks and stones caught in its winding depths the river drags seafoam upstream gently claiming it as if that which it touches is it’s own and always has been the foam only shrugs shyly, an awkward smile slipping over its face, that adds salt in pinches turning to idle sugars -would anything- the river responds to the projected call of a sand dollar one that waters could never have dreamed of holding so serenely and it’s like the world is beginning all over again that’s how it should feel the sand dollar answers in sweet sincerity lightly clinging to the pull of the waves and it would be perfect if not for -have happened- heaven’s reeds are the root of heartache and they drift down the Lithe pulling everything angelically destructive -if I didn’t- -reach out- -my hand?-

life's watery half-grave
at the edge of humanity’s consciousness a river flows through guitar chords of thoughts, rocks and stones caught in its winding depths the river drags seafoam upstream gently claiming it as if that which it touches is it’s own and always has been the foam only shrugs shyly, an awkward smile slipping over its face, that adds salt in pinches turning to idle sugars -would anything- the river responds to the projected call of a sand dollar one that waters could never have dreamed of holding so serenely and it’s like the world is beginning all over again that’s how it should feel the sand dollar answers in sweet sincerity lightly clinging to the pull of the waves and it would be perfect if not for -have happened- heaven’s reeds are the root of heartache and they drift down the Lithe pulling everything angelically destructive -if I didn’t- -reach out- -my hand?-
