Lyric Fusion VII: Flow and Swirl


Painting by Trisha Orr


Grief will come to you.
You will lose
The beloved.

Grip and cling
All you want.
It makes no difference.

Catastrophe?
--it's just waiting to happen.
Lost?
--you can be sure of it.

Flow and swirl of the world
Carried along
As if by a dark current.
All you can do is keep swimming.
All you can do is keep singing.
