out of the water
out of the water
near the persian gulf
refugees have no idea
where they are
survival skills
come out of nowhere
or perhaps
from the lessons
of the younger dryas
this desert
once under water
possesses knowledge
buried inside an ark
april two thousand twenty-five

Buried along with concepts such as compassion, respect and tolerance me thinks.
Thought-provoking words.
