poetry is the water under my feet
as I lightly step upon
the surface
of its deep terrain
It is the water
supporting my weight;
words won't let me
sink
The crazy part
is the fact that
I'm not weightless.
I'm not a waterbug
skittering across infinite hydrogen bonds.
And I walk along the surface tension
like I have never been tense;
I feel all the ripples below
but I cannot be influenced.
*
I am walking on water
and therefore
I must be God.
