Submergence
I was all angle once
sharp and schist-like
the spiked back of a rock dragon
arching into air
these days I wade
in a rising tide of blonde, of bland
when my time comes
I will sink entirely
in a rising tide of blonde, of bland
when my time comes
I will sink entirely
become the merest dimple
in a cheek of beach
smooth and silted
with my own crushed dust
in a cheek of beach
smooth and silted
with my own crushed dust
