There’s a little place
On the off-beaten track
Where the Ocean
Meets the River

It’s a place where Poseidon
And Achelous meet
In tranquil harmony
And volatile discord

The Ocean beckons
With its sea-foam whisper
As the River entices
With its deep azure glimmer

Stuck in a blissful trance
You wade down the center
In perfect equilibrium
With the River and its Father

The coolness of the water
Burns with fiery ecstasy
Causing you to melt
Into isolated surrender

Trapped in two worlds
That soon become one
You search for a breath
Finding that there is none.
