Kanagawa


Liquid glass, crystalline blue, what could I do without you.
Gave us life, but took it too, It destroyed, then wiped clean, as quickly as a drop of a guillotine.
This odd liquid will take and claim, those who were affected were never the same.
Poseidon reached for the shores, but accidentally took a little more.
He ran from it, the big blue. He turned and an extra breath he drew. As this liquid glass, crystalline blue. Took him and made him anew. The fire in his lungs thawed the ice in his veins,
The blue around him held him in chains. He saws stars and swirls, an inky night illuminated by pearls. He accepted it, the ice-cold bliss, the world above was one that he would not miss.
As he let blue take it,
His final breath
It gave a sight.
A plume of air danced to the light
He closed his eyes counted to 10
And felt old blue take him again
