Oh this is fun. Exploring how deep these old magnetic word pairings go. This one went to the underworld through a wishing well. Day two of National/Global Poetry writing month. Enjoy the poem and your own journey into the deep.
Deep Wish
Wishing well
Mercury gray
Pebble rippled
Deep
Below water table
Water sign
Fluid as life
Deep wish
Given to the underworld
Niflheim
Not where evil dwells
where we do our shadow work,
we shed old skins
baptized again
in primal waters
to emerge washed
A new day
