The Swan’s Solitude

There is a swan dying
in a sewer,
and I am the sewer.
In my dreams, I am a gutter.
A swan is dying, hidden
and underground
In a gutter.
The sewer is overflowing
and a swan is dying.
In a sewer a swan
is dying,
in my dreams
in a gutter,
it dies with me.

I like it! Such soul-shredding angst.

I love the strength your words seem to possess here. Terrible but powerful!

the juxtaposition of swan and sewer is fresh and provocative.

Did you symbolise swan for spirit/soul?Very well done.
