Growling Swallet

Curious explorer 

Questioning the landscape 

I wander through rainforest

To the cave that swallowed a river. 

A limestone labyrinth

Deeper 

and more complex than the veins in a body

River water sighs, gasps, groans and thunders 

Adding to the peaceful cacophony of noise. 

layered limestone 

shaped by water

endless unexplored underground arteries

Lidar 

Science

They don’t know

Cool darkness calls me further down

To peaceful lives unknown

I want to go.
