******* Down a Waterfall

I stood there,

Tall and proud,

Half yard behind

Death drop,

Vortex form at toes,

Put fish world in spin.

Crush moss trees with

Splashing feet.

One long gaze

Left to right,

Miles of pool and stream

Spelling poetry in cursive

Through eroded landscape.

Zip down,

Junk out.

Open gates of flesh tap

Muscle relax,

Fresh release

Of human nectar.

Light separation

Casting rainbow shimmer,

A dancing upright

Tower of liquid.

Gravity outstretch

Palm grip

And connect

Via web of

Golden pour,

Chaps eye to

Mother earth.

A converging

Of torrents,

Saturating transparent terrain

With saffron and lemon.

The taste in a frog's mouth

Of sweet ammonia.

Clench,

And donation over.

A momentary meld

Of man and nature.

Those few seconds

Putting context into me:

At one with the scenery,

An extension of environment,

A limb of creation.
