The tender swells carry me But never disturbs. Kept afloat with the meager thoughts of existence A wave collides against the back of my head. I fall victim to a surge. I plunge down, submerged, by the wrathful hands of Poseidon. Shooting hard into my throat Sea salt scrapes for something. Choking I reach out and struggle One eye sees in red same as the eyes staring back.
No point of reference I simply sink. Deeper. Deeper. Down the depths.
With what light that does pierce down this far I gaze At the glorious expanse of unknown cities. Hovering above a void, a wild spectacle distracts me. Pillars holding statues. Bridges spanning miles. Prairies full of green and red. And massive graveyards in honour of those of whom are worthy of such a burial.
There the void becomes something more. Air has pushed through my eye sockets I have drifted down so deep. I want to shake but the freezing water weighs down on me so much. I am not blind from near death but from complete extinction of light. I realize I wasn't swimming at all. A clutching hand has dug its nails into my now broken ankle. Delivering me To a place I have always wanted. A home. Here no one can evict me from what is rightfully mine.
