the sheath, white
coating pale skin
as moonlight discovered
her wholeness
spreading out over the river.
-
the depth, craved intrinsically
like the blood that gave life
beneath her flesh,
was sought after
in the midst of madness
and concrete.
-
She bellowed deep
within a forest
a jungle
her home
feet, muddy and quickened
with a worry of returning
to a stale world.
-
but beyond imagination
she lived there
still.
under the waxing
and waning moon
between the trees
and thickets
against the cool
pull of the river.
And here she gathered
a sense of peace.
