Maelstrom of Blue

By Keah Hansen

By Keah HansenPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

There is a maelstrom of blue

Inside me. What is

A maelstrom? You say

Which is the same thing I thought

When writing it. A maelstrom

Is what gobbles up

Ships. It razes

Cornfields flat. It brings

Puddles for jumping

All about town. Likewise, blue

Is periwinkles baked

In sun. An eye

I gravitate towards;

slow currents.

It is the sound I make

When I open my mouth.
