Reflected Orders of Exile

by Chris McCool - Not entered

waterfalls
run high beneath my bridge
unwill the simple overture

the throes of being formed

i simply accept the new layers of moss
i steal from the muddy creeks and know
the bloodline came in with the moonbeam

cracked and huddled

and of the ivory pearl mother
whose breath sails under the boat
filmed from a height to remember

regarding the horn that brings spirits home
under the tendrils and past the moray eel

throw down your anchor
before we ward off goodness.
