depth appears to be elusive en masse. shallowness is abundant like weeds in the grass. beneath the Pacific ocean is 'Challenger Deep'. the deepest of all deep waters at 36,200 feet. and then you have the sea of Azov at less than 3 feet which could never refresh a wanting soul, in a sultry summer's heat. depth is mysteriously different, filled with hold your breath unknowns and butterfly intrigue. listen to depth's secrets as it crashes against the shoreline. depth has so much to say in so little time. the shallows have no ability nor care to hear depth opine. they stand in a puddle, on surfaces they dine. dare to breach depth's surface and be fully ready to sink. depth and substance are the two most exquisite qualities, be it in a person or a poem in ink.
