Lot's Wife
Lot’s Wife

Turned to salt at the waters’ edge,
that last, staggering step frozen in the act,
instinct extends a crystalline arm
and the eyes seek the safe landing
her saline nature no longer needs,
the folds of her cloak solidified
and sparkling in the reflected light,
her journey proverbially ended.


Line count: 8
Free verse
For Express It In Eight, 03.08.22
