Water time (2009)

  

water in the basement

where it should not be


water in the knee

watered down screed


water for the unthirsty

water on the summer orchard


there is one time and place for hydration:

nature's time.


our time is a wet towel

and 6 sets of nostrils, 4 nostrils dry


it's a board decision

chess, candyland, parchesi


parched easy.

oh, swell.
