Stuart, in my short time on here this is one of the most interesting pieces I've read, the words and images have stayed in my mind since I first read it......for me, what marks out a poem is whether it moves me, makes me think and is memorable and this is ticks all those boxes! Paul

thanks martin. i actually first learnt/became fascinated by the water thing after reading a 'calvin and hobbes' comic strip about calvin, the little boy, drinking one too many glasses of water and becoming a puddle. i'll try and find a link...

Marvellous stuff Stu. I like the whole scenario around people being made up of water with that fab line starting
'A vast ocean of lost dreams'
Nice on

A poet can almost go 'gaga' with that intertwining of senses and ideas that play constantly through the mind, the diverse associations that whizz into multi-focus, each unique, yet somehow always connected, layers upon layers. Getting such relationships into viable thoughts, let alone words to share, is a real talent.
Superb conclusion.
Much enjoyed.

I know you're back Stu ! Into that dark place between truth and fantasy where all imagination lies. This seems a sort of elevation of quite sordid matters into something quite redeeming and has your original questing stamp on it. It's clever how you dip into a journey and then arrive back right you started. Miles away from a Kellogg's advert but still ...Welcome back!
