~There are times you look in the mirror~wonder what it is~the space that isn’t~the inbetween thing~reflections of what was~visions of the morrow~is it ours to decide~what is now and/or the great divide~

~Watercolor Mirror~

Delicate and impassioned
trees in the ocean forest
sway madly in the water wind
long for a taste of the moon

Fin winged creatures fly
perform aqua aerobatics
cling to a singular darting motion
clouds in a liquid sky

Some deep and forgiven
dwell in a land of lesser angels
whose sin was eyes
and sea the less

This nature of lottery
its thin needle of faith
rewards the aggressor
in a tangle-web of numbers

The march of the heavens
pulls hair from all trees
excites an ebb and flow of blood
in a sweep of timeless tide

~Tom (WordWulf) Sterner~
