where i come from
running through ferns diving into the sea
a fishermen appears puts wire into me
i lie on the rocks cover myself in salt water
and kelp play harp
there’s always a river circling
and my heart is the sea
a thousand times a day with sun and wind and rain
all i am i give hurricane light
the coral light gold of my return
the tide moves me sings through me
brings ecstatic wind a blessing rain
where i come from the fish have souls
