... waves waves waves .../ splash over my thighs,/ slow to ripples/ that caress my chest.
December bath

... waves waves waves ...
splash over my thighs,
slowing to ripples
that caress my chest.

This warm embrace of the tub,
this slant of winter's weak light,
diffused from glowering grey
splattered with white.

All: anxiety, fright,
submersed in this water-of-life,
cleansed by the waves waves waves
calming to ripples.
