    “the water boiled
    and evaporated,
    leaving only
    salt and screams -“

    This part is soooo good, I want to steal it. It makes feel like it’s a part of really great lyrics. It reminds me of Hozier’s if you know him.
    Awesome poem!!

    I, too, can't get over the part of "leaving only salt and screams - ". And it's so wild that I saw Star's comment yesterday and am currently listening to Hozier on a playlist right now! Can't get over this poem. The title alone is so powerful and sorrowful in its meaning.

      Past the interesting imagery of the title and the strong verses, there's still the choosing of each word to talk about - the poem's overall short but shows as much as a thousand words could. Rich and thoughtful work, Ben.
