From superficial surface
To cavernous interior
To endless ocean
To superficial surface
Life flows in cycles and spirals
Immersing us
Buoying us
Soothing us
Exciting us
Scaring us
As we live its adventurous
Path Between pools and rapids
Paddling our own canoes
Imagining we hold our destiny
In our own hands
When, quite clearly
We don’t
Swallowing life hole
Makes us well
Opposing life’s current
Makes it a bitter pill
To swallow.
