Mental Contagion

Started writing at the behest of a friend. Poems of loss, love, war and the human predicament. How's that for English Major vague???

Love is the sea. She washes over your beach of anger, denial and confusion. Over and over and over again. Grain by grain you disappear. The salt water roils and swells and fills and recedes. Hammer tight your barricades, shore-up the storm walls, ha! The sea smashes, grinds and slithers into your dry dust heart. Listen to her crooning in a rumbling elephant voice - love now, love now, love now.

The sea bursts with all the tears ever freed. All the tears we tried, imagined, didn't know we cried are there too. The sea has more hugs for tears than all the armies have holsters for guns. Her hugs will kill you. Billions of years of cunning, running and roll will find YOU. "The seas loves too hard," you say. You are right. You win. Then be happy, drown.

Drown, drown, drown.     :)
