The Storm

We got swept up in its tide.
A crowd of people
like waves
pushed us forward and down
in a crush.

All that can be heard our the whoosh
of voices.
Together in chants as the tide
leaps high
and breaks.

We were caught in the storm
no perserver
or jacket
just the movement of bodies
pushing against and away.

Holding our breaths we tried to be air
but the world
from all angles
was just a sea of air
and dirt
and sky
of people.
