Water bearer


The gargoyle has a better
vantage point,
which explains the smirk.
Tho' he'll never tell
what goes on
over our heads,
while we lie
in bed
wandering in dreams
it seems...
'Twas Medusa that said,
Look at me, wait right here for me,
I will give you eternity-
and after a while
of peering at the gargoyles smile
clear as day
the words
came dripping out,
Try
first
to be happy
as you are
just in case 
this is your final face,
and then it began
to rain again.
