bound only by the limitations
of short-roped imagination
dancing on the water--sink
heavy in my disbelief
with final swallowing of air
I sink into sea of despair
and fishes gather--think me food--
blowing kisses of the truth
descending, I, amidst seaweed
necessity confronting need--
need, I NEED, some air to breathe!
as bubbles rise up, yearning blue...

O Serene one,

This is wonderfully expressed...

"I, amidst seaweed
necessity confronting need-"

WOW!
