Béatrice Machet # 17   The Water and salt you are made of 

after Magdalena Ball

 

(Magdalena Ball #18 The Idea of Sound Responding to Dominique Hecq #13 Fish Dance : https://conversationinpoetry.blogspot.fr/2018/05/magdalena-ball-18-idea-of-sound.html)

these

things I find  in the dark of streams

                        in the opaque of sand

reaching for you    whoever you are

as an evolution process   with bones

mine and yours    parts of skeletons

to write with

unearthed letters of a body for a common language

seeds for new sounds echoing some old ones

let them flow in one’s vibrating voice

let the strange syllable explode

let the mermaid sing with an open throat

let the friction of tongues warm up the phonetic

then

let the eyes pronounce  MNI WICONI

all around and around and around and

never forget the water and salt you are made of
