Gravadlax

A poem from 2018

I spent my life swimming
Swimming against the tide
Jumping to get higher
Closer to the heavens

I was spied on by enemies
Enemies seeking to entrap me
They were no match for me
So I jumped into their net

They sent me to the slaughter
Slaughter one for the good of many
My bones were not broken
I sacrificed my life

Three days and three nights wrapped
Wrapped and becoming sweeter
Purified from the sins of the world
I was not resting

I have been cured
I am the cure
My body whole
My body sliced
Take and eat
