Lungs filled with fire
No ports of call
Countless silver diamonds reach out
Soon the night will fall
Drifting on the shimmer
Of melting sound
Perfect sphere of light that hovers over liquid ground
I will learn to breathe water
I will walk the ocean floor
I will reach the body of the land
Through the crystalline
The crystalline hush
Murmur of echoes
Against the deep sea bed
Ringing on a higher note than the voices overhead
Why?
Who?
The shimmer overheadWhy?
Who?
The voices overhead
The blind leading the blind
