Annette Lohan - Wish Full Thinking

My granite heart is of molten rock
Washed water smooth, cooled by breath
Of reason. Do as you wish. I will
Not falter on my way. I lie
At the centre and follow the flow of
Blood. I am the blood, I am the heart;
I allow this flow. I swallow an
Unfathomable pain. Through my blood
And my bones I grind it down to memory.
What remains is sweet, and I remember.
