I grapple with the edge
of the taste
of seaweed and bombs
You have kept your
underground river away from me,
preferred filling your pockets
with pebble-bombs and seaweed silence.
You knew of your thirst
and my river longings - yet
not enough empathy for surging waves
not enough to break away
from absurd deterrence reasoning
and send it flying,
there's no cold war
anymore.
My fears
refuse to stay in port,
they fling pebble-bombs
and brown seaweed
like drowned hearts
full in my face.
