down to the ground and
into my drink - I watch
it fill the glass, diluting
the alcohol inside...
my stomach rumbles
like thunder due to the
emptiness it feels - there
is a good reason as I have
not eaten in hours...
our pond overflows with
kindness when visitors are
allowed to fish its banks,
even though no licenses...
a dusky dawn turn silent
when the evenng robs it
of its virginity and I watch
as if I am some dirty old
man getting his kicks...
mute points fall ot of my
ears along with the drops
that were put inside to
open up its possibilities,
falling short of expectations;
and, I see myself more than
just clearly but as others
see me when disappointed.
