I am
sailing/swimming
(things changing minute
by minute)
up a dark river
across a dark sea
will go
with the current not
push against it
float on my back thinking
through the connection
etymologically between
star and
disaster, nebula
and nemesis
oh the osmosis of an idea
filtering through me as
I learn gills and scales
begin to practice
waiting for
deep sea-change in
the fire of my neurons
light lucid enough to
bathe, not just
swaddle in
Flow Orinoco
pour out your heart
between near
parallel banks
across huge swathe of continent.
