liquid assets

Post by saw » August 13th, 2011, 5:30 pm

waterfalls
or streaming tears
both make me feel small
dwarfed by their power
and honesty
the brackish taste
of ancient sweat
crosses the lips
like a history lesson
spans the ears
I never believed
the iron curriculum
inflexible
as a centurion
trying to do a james brown split
and man, that soul, that soul
agile as a cat
o-nine tails flogging
my sensibilities
I need all the waters I can muster
to gaze upon, to drink on down
taste the minerals..... plunge into
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism
