Still Waters by Anita MacSometimes my mind fogs up
with a sickly slick condensation
that feels more like drowning
than impaired vision.
I’m tempted to say things
that make more sense
than they let on,
just to see if you’ll
pretend that it’s
the language of shallow waters.

Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 06/06/09 at 01:58 PM no doubt, these stanzas of yours
are lovely creations, Anita,
and although they are two, they are lovely
and affecting like a slew. |
