Water
Today, warm raindrops
glass blurs, the blurry glassy,
sharp sparkles sugar.
Behind
Evening, it was good.
Leaves all turned into shadows
sky palette blending.
You
Broken glass, a cup
a puzzling of pieces
holds onto nothing.

Change is like that strong smell
of cut grass or chopped wood
that stops you still.
Patterns, a symbol can be
an illegible sign,
at first glance.
Or a certain light at sunset,
or dark that whispers
Where am I coming from?
You are always going
Somewhere.
Next to nothing seems impossible.
I am next.
