Like a stone

"Vortex"

Like a stone

It weighs her down

Like a stone

Somewhere deep

It lands

Slides

Down

Down her throat

She lets it

Slide

Down

She just lets it

Slide down

The slippery

Slope

and down

Into

This vortex..

(wanting to shout,

waiting to shout,

somewhere inside

there's a voice)
