Hot and heavy and still going

Holding out

losing limbs
broken intactness, unintact
untacked, tactless, tacit

swimming through sand
grit in teeth, sinking faster than forward
hot, sucking moisture out

mask unhinged
ceramic cracking, peeling up
underneath just shadow

flopping on shore
glistening grey and rainbow
gasping in slivers

stop or go
when to hold out for better
or just ride the wind

unyielding momentum
do not let go for a moment
this is it.
