Today is a day for staring at the river. So many things happening around me, swirling and billowing. Red and festering. And I just want to stay with the river. I block all else out. Constant and even, Her low voice whispers to me and I sway to the cadence of it. What profound human utterance could break it's spell today... Visions revealed and lives lived in a moment there in the cold dark flow. I will walk to the banks edge and feel the mist gently pulled over me. I will be amazed if I return from it... The siren, seducing me, taunting me. Pulling me tighter. Promises and cajoling, I flirt with slipping into the knowing blackness and feeling the intimacy of her cold caress. Drifting away, enveloped in dreamstate.
