Waterflies

6-18-17

The reflection of enormity
is the chasm created when
the ocean meets the air.
Existence of life in black and white
is blue-green and green-blue
and everything agrees in between.
You're a plant with eyes;
I'm a fish with stagefright.
And we're both magnets for lures.
They tell us they're around most
the days the sun shines longest,
creating waterflies in a
concentric pattern just above
and below the surfaces.
We're aware of them and
they're anything possible,
now and this summer and
this summer and every year.
They're anything possible,
just like the reflection of us.
