A River Streams Straight Through Her

She slow- slips feet in poems Tears trickle from sky- high eyes down earth's cheeks to find the stream I love your long water veils abseiling splashed self down, streaming gently life's sheer sails Father shows me a true source- Tugela springs from plateau spread out with windblown scrub. Symbiosis exists here. Vague thoughts of Virginia wading, stone-weighted pockets dragged her down deep to depths... A mind burst by selfdoubt's clouds touch my unresistant heart. There's only one way to go, trained by firmament's full flow- downpour your loyal consort sending mind subservient- twisting those transcendant traits through trails of least resistance Aah, River! You flow fullsome as you rush, rapids gushing roughshod through brim-filled banks. Thunder hails soaking cloudbursts- Storms suit well- recessed levels- Overflow forms new outlets shaped by pushing poweshift.
