Within

Inevitable beauty
Inevitable connection
Inevitable pain

Mists of word and sweat
Saliva, blood, fear, and hope
Wet paws that place themselves in dry
Hot palms

We rumble with deeper layers
Of connection than one to two.
Our ties are built of
Ashes
Amber encased bugs
Crackling aa lava like black thick glass
That talks beneath your feet

We are the pond side reed and
Dragonfly exuvia
Your fingers search for notes
Upon vibrating animal intestines wound
In silk that sings to the Morrigan's call

For honor. Honor that lives in truth deep dirt songs
Melodies that sing in mysterious curiosity
Searching above and below

And so deeply
Within
