lyrics

I don’t yet know how to write us.
Fear of losing has kept the pen from my hand
This love, both archaic and new,
A creek spilling into her river.
I am a rushing thing—a white capped current,
Wild and polluted
And I don’t want to contaminate you with the refuse I
carry.
Bruised Budweiser cans and Marlboro Red cigarette butts
Looking a lot like PTSD and depression litter the shorelines
of this body.
And what of you?
What sediments erode your agated heart?
I did not come to muddy your lapping waves.
Besides, none of that matters anyway.
We are nature.
Creek
River
Stone
And every bend has brought us here – to this gentle
confluence.
