no wonder we say between heaven and earth
This body
mostly water and salt
superfluity of minerals – pulse tides within
heart pull of earths magnet core
feel it--
persistent pull of stars – minerals
swimming within
This body – yours
Mine -- A confluence of Rivers
alone but striving to meld
listen – song of the current
no wonder we say between heaven and earth
This body
mostly water and salt
superfluity of minerals – pulse tides within
heart pull of earths magnet core
feel it--
persistent pull of stars – minerals
swimming within
This body – yours
Mine -- A confluence of Rivers

listen – song of the current
