so you are in that stage of <br />having to dive like Adrienne <br />in the ocean <br />finding the wreck, <br /> <br />more interpretations about reality. <br /> <br />you climb the ladder and see <br />another world, <br /> <br />and here you have written another story <br />about something that you cannot say directly <br /> <br />the mermaid and the jellyfish <br />the hands of the merman stronger than yours <br /> <br />and the death of one <br />the name of whom is not written elsewhere <br /> <br />the sand, the sun, and the silence of your <br />deepest wreck.<br /><br />RIC S.
