Meridian

We
Out to sea
Waves roll by
Easily

We
In blue-green
Below us
The unseen

We
Hewn from stone
Water breaks
Upon our bones

We
Sinking slow
Doing
What we know

Throwing rocks
Throwing rocks
May the sea
Part for me

We
Are in deep
Weightless
And oblique

Screaming
Our lungs out
In protest
Against the endless

Throwing rocks
Throwing rocks
May the sea
Part for me
