The opposite of Moses' parting of the Red Sea;
Nowhere to hide (from it or anything)-
The earth's two sides collide sending
everything evil and holy crashing,
tumbling on top of your weak
body-
A flood comes (inside). Come inside darling.
Your eyes cry
Tears of blood down your cheeks-
The puddle beneath, at your feet,
becomes deeper and deeper;
Deep enough-surely- for anybody (if correctly
positioned: face down, nose and mouth
submerged) to drown in.
Suffocation.
Asphyxiation.
Utter and complete lack of oxygen.
Complete and utter absence of ambition.
The opposite of Moses' parting of the Red Sea
is happening internally-
Down on bended knee
We try to run, we attempt to hide
but either way the two sides
collide
And we get washed away,
then spit back at high-tide.
