Sway Poem by Holly Gardner

Sway

To be a squid or starfish
On the ocean floor
Swaying with only
The soft and quiet water for company.

My dark genome activated
For some times of rest
With only gills and glassy eyes
Waves passing far overhead.

Sunlight filtering down
Until one day at my choosing
I sprout legs and walk naked
From the surf, myself once again.
