The Mountain by feeo

She’s ruthless
Cracked open and still
She swells and then sinks
Her slate tailbone
Jagged and slick
Her ribcage curved and giant
Her greys and her greens
Her blues and her pinks
Ancient and harsh and lovely
She could tear me to pieces
Give life
Give life
Then take it away
I’m only a witness
Just a second in time
Lost in her vast unwinding
Treading her spine
As the sun beats down
Heavy and hot and hungry
She’ll give life
Take life
Tear us to pieces
You’re only a witness
