• Eight Visions

  I.
                    I watched a child
                         drop a stone
                         into a pond.
  
                         Where it
                               sank,
                         the water
                               gulped,
                         then heaved its
                               body
                         for half a
                               second.
  
                                    Its
                                   skin
                                 rippled
                                outward
                            in circling folds
                       around where the child
                  dropped the stone I watched
             sinking half a second into the rippling,
    circling skin of the water’s ponderous, gulping body.
