Clarity of Vision


You made it this far, put on a good show,
through the thick brambles and lotus;
though it would have helped you to know
that you were too busy watching her to notice
that all the trees were in perfect rows.

Now let's see if you can swim:
a shriveling pool of desire;
a luminescent fountain;
a lake of fire–
whatever the hell you feel like bathing in.
