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
