The Lost River

shiny shiny
go now
hungry
thirsty
swallowing
being swallowed
this is it
go now
into the deep
into the dark hole
into thundering quiet
dream now
sleep into the foil
seep onto the coals
sizzling silver
glowing fish
swim within the fire
swim through dull ash
the taste of smoke
leap into the brilliant fall
over rounded rock
over frothing rivulets
into the shining pools
into the shining pool
salty with spawn and sunlight
steaming with life
drink deeply your own blood
eat your fill
go now fisherman
caught in flesh
go now fish
go
