I am addicted to walks
slow, meandering walks
drawn to layers
Everything relates to story
the frozen water
cupping frozen leaves
is a mind
holding an untold story
it waits
and waits
until
the thaw
::
I am drawn to water
water
water
and what lies beneath:
layers
of stone and silt and shell
Writing a story
is uncovering
the layers
sifting the silt
hoping there is more
than sludge
down there.
