My Delta Spirit

“A delta is an area of low, flat land shaped like a triangle, where a river splits and spreads out into several branches before entering the sea.”

My Delta spirit

comes on strong

in full marching steps

landing soft in my toes

and firm in my heels

a slide that dances along the edge of lightness

and the weight of existence in forward movement

It is the splitting of parts and paths

electromagnetic networks of dendrites and dandelions

swiftly surrendering to what pulls and what comes

Foolish in my shuffle

and still brave in my battle

my Delta spirit

comes on strong

in full marching steps

landing soft in my toes

and firm in my heels

a slide that dances along the edge of lightness

and the weight of existence in forward movement.
