Talisman

October 13th, 2009 | Category: My Poetry

Cataract

the talisman hangs at her throat

like a cataract of white water

spilling over the canyon’s lip

 

drink from it

hold it in your mouth

tight against your palate

 

listen – it hisses and hums

speaking of miracles

 

broken rock

flowing water

life
