Gliding gracefully through the
Blackened space of an unknown territory,
I observe from the shadows as
Bright coral worlds open up to me.
The navy blue waters
Wash away the fragile surface
Before I can leave my mark
But I’m undeterred.
My unwavering passion
Is split amongst my nine brains
And pumps jaggedly through
My three hearts.
I climb the stairs of a hurricane
Thrashing about until
Each crimson tentacle
Wraps around the body of an idea.
I squeeze the life out of each one,
And sand down the edges
Until I can orchestrate some
Semblance of flow.
For I am the octopus
Spitting an ocean of words
Into the atmosphere
Crafting the rainbow over the tide.
