You see, the water does all the things it’s meant to. It does everything and nothing It goes everywhere and nowhere. Its essence is dichotomies and dualities The shores line its gentle brutality Infinite and dangerous - an endless finality Sometimes still – a lifeless vitality. The wind can push it The earth can shake it To understand this paradox is a risk – Don’t take it. A stagnant mind will see you drowned. Producing these lines, but not a sound. Words to be written but not to be spoken. These are the words my soul has chosen.
