Submerge! [Free Verse]

Posted on March 14, 2023 by B Gourley

Hyderabad Street Art

a solid, black silhouette
sinks

submerge!
submerge!

it struggles to plunge
&
not be kicked back up --
to not bob like a wine cork
in the dark sea

but it seems to have
no mass to sink

but the right mass
to fly

My mom always said, “to each their own.” To this being, they own the sky. Cool poem.
