Horizon Has Parted -

thundrous drums pierce the misted murk of ocean's ceiling my roof shudders - veins flush danger lurks trembling aboveness expands flashes fierce - .. might this day be doomed? death sentence writ in iron drip dripping colour into a strange diluted drift cutting its equine teeth as they race the lunar wherewithal .. what eyes that are, close yet.. wait.. sweet now near comes light strikes the dark a saline womb's elasticity.. within the shell of me pearl lies glist glistening to the music of waves.. symphonic flash of flittering fins verdant bed bears me down.. curves green to pale creation.. moans from where a scene squirms actions left.. right.. body rises falls.. twists.. rises.. gasps.. gasps again.. a push.. moan.. light.. closing of eyes weeping wet corners crinkled with silent laughter and fear, always fear .. am neither beast nor woman neither gem nor flaw, but patient as purity.. in the calm of yet to come my breath is held til above me more light more movement less noise.. horizon has parted its lips to life.. true life - to exhale dreams come true.. .. thundrous drums pierce the misted murk of ocean's ceiling my roof shudders - veins flush danger lurks trembling aboveness expands flashes fierce .. ..
