This is Miracle

The air in the small orifices of a room filling with water,

Providing for the few breaths of a stuck man for moments

Before the light of life dims into murk of truth.


Just maybe,

Before the water fills his lungs along with the orifices

And interdicts him of any more life.

He gets a second chance,

As his saviour pulls him from the clutches of darkness and the unknown truth,

Which is death.


The existence of such a saviour is MIRACLE.
