Water Tao


Water flows forever downward
and dissipates into thin air.

It is the bearer of all things.
It endlessly flows and returns.

It is like a reflection of the Tao.
A reflection of your own face.

  1. Absolution

    Refracted light bends
    Minnows between a trident’s
    Prongs. rusted by salt.
    *
    Scales ripple beneath
    Mermaids like a xylophone
    Of echo feedback.
    *
    Water defines space
    Only to reform elsewhere,
    Emulating fog.
    *
    Those diamonds at
    Each crest wave goodbye to what
    The sunrise fractures.
    *
    If these were hands, how
    Deep could they burrow to change
    The course of rivers!
    *
    Water is always
    On a quest for salt, to taste
    Worthy of a child.
