i am water (running down a hill)
guided by a gravity i don't understand
searching for the molten core, that place of logic(/passion/desperation)
bound by natural laws, entranced by the supernatural
(the power behind powers)
i am folding and un-folding
taking and un-taking
being and un-being
tangled up in mountains, joined by other streams
cascading off cliffs and jagged peaks
swallowed by the ocean (scared by the size of space)

do you answer our longings in the valley?
(sometimes i just want to ascend these hills)
