To Beat The Stillness

one must move
shake the martini until
it is as blended as the blood
of ancestry

rock the boat
and if it capsizes
be ready to swim

run deep into the abyss
shouting at the top your lungs
toward the stones

they will crack

mountains fall at the deafening echo of 
your heart

an avalanche to bury the stillness
remains of idleness beneath a grave of rubble
and a tombstone that reads:
"Here lies the aftermath of one never unmoved"
