Summary: Hah. Was reading through my old files, and I found this so enchanting! Hope you enjoy




I walked across a lake one day. No lies.
The water pushed against my feet, each
Ripple froze in place, but it wasn’t ice.
Clear as spring air, the fish swam below
My toes, as a gecko walks on the side
Of a fish bowl.

Like a gecko. I could lick my own ears,
And I did.
