7 Leagues Under Dali
June 9, 2015
Worlds, worlds, worlds,
away.
How I wish to be
worlds away.
Drawers that my bodies
hold,
flood with water & the inevitable
molds.
Steps up my back,
branches out my head.
Stay silent?
No.
I’ll tell my secrets instead.
Stuck thousands and thousands
away.,
Some worlds away from
thee.;
Caged by the currents of the trembling
sea.
Worlds, worlds, worlds
away;
thousands of leagues under the
sea

This is an ekphrastic poem about two art pieces by Salvador Dali. I hope for people to feel a sense of longing and sorrow from this piece, but also a feeling of hope.
