Tried Waters of a Forgotten Measure
Photo by me, edited on Instagram. Accompanying poem by me.
Rescue me
From ends shallow or deep
That I may balance with no malice on steady middle-ground;
That I may at times tolerate the profound and confining walls of sustenance on a bronze platter:
no knots to be unbound,
no sympathy for the matter.
For you and I know well
we all hold the capacity to drown
in a gargling protest, we the monsters that dwell
and in our hearts, the power of the thorned crowns
weigh us down to the rotten depth of equilibrium.
