The Wishing Bones

A thousand grandmothers ago
Pyrrha and Deucalion repopulated
the world with rocks, bones of mother Earth,
a generation of my ancestors strained
from the mud of a drowned planet.

grandmothers, their gills and wetness,
before they crawled from that blue expanse
and learned to carry the sea within them,
in their cells, between their cells, in their eyes.

where we're selectively permeable
and our bodies exchange the smallest life.

from others we'd be missing the skin
that defines lovers and enemies
and opens itself to both. — Jalina Mhyana
