– A glimpse into the Well

Reaching, I
can find no her.
Here, hours old,
dream-time before
the lonely mind weans
from the thing
the One.
-
Unfocused pair,
still water-
blue. Beyond them
drawn down spiral threads,
the woven husks of ghosts familiar
pulling ripples from the over
whelming.
But not her.
Not yet.
-
She calls me, “Child,” through patterned shapes of
them, brought from antiquity
to bathe me in their memories of
presence, and
The Pool.
