Teaser:
Ebb and Tide
And then that thought strikes you
It stings you
With a scorpion’s sting
Sudden, sharp, complete
And sweat stains the spine
Trickles down
Streaming through the crack
Until it gets
To the foot of the hill
Where it forms a pond
In which you swim
Sometimes drowning
Sometimes surfacing
And resurfacing
Tears
Draw films of life
For you to choose from
And when these waters have done their time
The scene that stands before your eyes
Stays its course until the end
Of the next time
