Something in Me

 

The rock was unseasonably still

The kimono looked like figures on a vase

The ancients were waiting to see the tip of the joint flame red

 

a white figure flitted to the point

the limestone ledge

 

they were already in the water

heavy

lips just touching

 

I remembered a line of poetry

 

something in me.
