Poem #2,806 | Dive from that height you fear

Dive from that height you fear
into a pool [of unknown depth
yet measured] – Fall without a
thought to pause [such an act
demands absolution] – We will
find suddenness in water – hit
of giving & cald [a sudden kiss
of auld recalls] – Smooth deep
into that pool & bubble-form –
sound is compressed – sinking
then turned upside down – we
surface to air [best not forgot]
& to jag of poolside shouts – A
kick to that tile-faced side & a
safe place – your gut is still up
above you – your whole ripped
still by a revere of dive heights
