by the weight of exodus. Abandoned
to the blood-rough nails...

The Sea We Will Not Tame
Wondering upon our almost forgotten smiles
and twinkling eyes hidden, 
we have spun this world
in smoke and mirrors, 
reflecting light in curving waves. 

We have wandering
into the misty fog
as it marched 
out of clear air

SATURATED SEEDLINGS:

Start 

A solid life form
Shelled until Saturated
Grounded in suppressing soil
Surrounded and submerged in darkness

A seminally insignificant seedling
Attempting to sprout above the horizon

To let the sweet sunshine photosynthesize itself

The green applaudance
As its begins breaking through...

It is amazing…oftentimes to our wonder and delight…sometimes to our dismay

When minds that are rigid blame fates?
