I was thirsty.
So I went and got some water.
My glass was full.
Translucent in my cup.

So I drank.
A cool feeling
in my throat.
Yet I did not feel
my thirst quenched.

I filled up my cup
to try and let my
thirsty feelings fly,
far from by being.

But no matter how much I drank,
the liquid of life could not
satisfy my being no matter
how much I consumed.

Huh...

I tried a different cup...
nothing.

I tried to add ice...
nothing.

I tried to add sweet flavor...
nothing.

How could these things not satisfy
my thirst?

My friend walked by.
Looked at me as
my tongue was sticking out.
He shook his head at me.

"Your thirst was quenched the first time," He said.
"You just thought you needed more."

****.
