Crystal Clear
Quizzical mind
hushed and hidden
lie within the shadows.
Everyone is prepping for
the live broadcast.
The premieres set once
the sun plants itself
on to the night sky
Not gently woven--
Plucked.
Dragged body
worn feet
rasin skin
snailed steps
into:
shallow waters
where:
Mud grows anew and
Murkiness blinds your view
The rock has been taken for granted.
Carbon copies infiltrate your family too
The truth disregarded.
No
one
sought for the
crystal clear waters
that
swooned
beneath
it
all.
