leannas evolution by ~soma:iconsoma:





bent
brittle
riddle face
a soul
without a shell
to call a home:
a costly kind of freedom

stop:
the vapor breath shock:
so far from here
to the
cold grey country
beneath my feet

a spittle flecked truth:
"you come from a fish"

(i come from the sea)

we, ocean's orphans,
dropping scales
glitter trail
of
nucleotides
our vestigial home
still seeping
from
our eyes

one of my roommates once told me of an experience she had with a street person in ny that left her oddly unsettled for some reason... i think i may have realized why...

"a costly kind of freedom"... kind of makes you think about what is freedom.

beautiful. i feel like i overuse this word commenting on your work! ;) (Wink)

don't you feel strange facing the ocean? to somehow imagine we were birthed there, maybe?

vestigial home still seeping from our eyes ~ tsk. damn lovely.
