spat out by the sea

I too embrace the least wave

risen from the depths

~~~

what has happened here?

all around devestation,

I start by blinking

~~~

universal eye,

the river sought deeper shade-

my heart is unsoiled

~~~

pleading ignorance,

my bridge that one day will fall

invites you over

~~~

these faded portraits

climbing stone steps worn with time

frozen light and dark

~~~
