Flood
May 27, 2012
The freedom of a flowing pen.
Unlike any other
The silence of an ocean
Like the slicing of a feather through crisp, clear air
As the wind through the leaves of spring
And the caressing of waves against matte lake boulders
Faces smoothed by years of wear
Dull against the glistening ripples
Torrents of gushing ink
Tranquil and serene still
Still water trickling over
Pale, bare skin
Darkened in patches by a lingering sun
Waiting endlessly to explode into
peace—
