My body is as wide as a river.
My big soul
heaves and churns
with the wildest waters,
whipped up
with such a tempest madness.
When the pain flows through me,
salt water leaves my eyes
and my guts constrict,
like flapping fish caught in a
fisherman’s net;
gasping mouths frantically
sucking for clear air.
The rage and the torment of
these tiny,
sentient beings.
I am torn by such things,
by such injustices as
these deep,
wrenching emotions cast upon
my wide and
open-gazed soul.
She-moon above me
stares back
open mouthed and
slack jawed.
My body is as wide as a river.
My currents are relentless,
raging eternally through
fierce rapids,
icy cold and wet,
against
hard, impassive
stone.
My currents are relentless- I like that
