Something Sacred

Brian Looney

    I hear it dripping, whispering, the telling pitter-patter. It’s a thin report, a twice-born speech, spearing through the caverns, ripped apart on impact.

    Some unlucky droplets, they spike within the earth. The waters eat on through, and the cave looks like an empty jar...or a curving, pulpless crust of bread.

    I hear it drip, a hollow call, a diamond flash, then dark again. It’s gonna break my brain; it’s gonna pound with force. It’s working on its own.

    I pick my way, ginger footsteps on the rocky floor, tip-toe, tip-toe. I mustn’t disturb the silence, the woven spell, active still.

    Something new is deftly hidden, and one wrong move will spook it. Then the drips will cease, and I’ll be roaming soundless, nothing sacred.
