A jump, A plunge
A claw, A crawl
A seal freed from captivity
An eel with electricity
Dancing to no beat - glistening drops of dew
Gliding past my skin - a vast piece of blue
Back arcs, legs thrash,
Streamlined fury on an onward dash.
Limbs disjointed, body dismembered,
I disintegrate into the milieu
A sudden constriction beneath the chest,
I break the surface and gasp for air.
A meager pleasure that satisfies not,
I plunge back in, craving for more.
Incessant propelling - I move along
Eternity passes - I wake and visibilize
For that transient instant I wasn't there,
Momentary liberty I had attained.
I was a trivial current in a sea,
I wasn't me; I was free.
