through watery light
and bubbles floating away
horizon peers down
evaporation
watering can to dry soil
last sips on your lips
empty sleeve hanging
don't let him see me searching
for what is missing
purpose diluted
by words that spread thin feeling
digging for the still
my eyes dig the sky
where beneath the blue is gray
and where is the rain
the clouds grow bigger
while within warm container
I evaporate
quickly plug the holes
all my hands are full you see
while I pour out into space
Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI found this one very full of evocative imagery.
