A Bitter Fruit
To undo, the rare
appearance of a god;
scouring the water,before the
sun, divides the land.
What was the worth
of a ritual, around the fallen virtues ?
The salt lake threw up
the broken genes.
The swirling sand covers
the boat, stranded on the beach.
A tempest is waited upon. The
gestures carry a message.
No authority.
I do not want to corrupt myself.
There was a narrow path
leading to the pink eyes.
