The Underneath

It was a pressing formless  
the underneath    
A dark like starless sky spread while crushing    
A dark like starless sky spread right through me  
My t shirt like skin    
Shrunk tight to me    
While arms they fought against its thickness  
My arms they  
lost a hard fought war  
   
   
O' the weight of it against my chest  
Where panicked screamed    
But no way out O' the underneath    
The underneath    
It darkened to me  
   
My toes touched unwelcoming sand    
And danced like this a moment    
They danced and dug a moment    
My toes they    
danced a moment    
   
My chest again remembered itself    
It pushed itself up into my jaw  
Who scowled and screwed itself at the darkness    
the darkness did not flinch    
The darkness thick
she swallowed me whole
