Drop of Water - New Poem

Drop of water


I call and you come

feeding me my chosen

anesthesia

I will soon administer

and the woes of the world will be washed

from my broken system

all worries are squashed

as the hard sticky syrup

gives up its gas

enters my lungs

circulates the bloodstream

and massages the brain

it sets up my day

helps me set up my own personal bounds

of fact and fiction

in its sway

do I pray

for some summonance from her/ some

click I should shine my shoes

and I should press my

shirt for

adieu

old enemies of my heart who have left me hung

on this rock to dry/ my paintings

drawn and quartered

let the eye

if not the soul go by

each stroke a drop

of water
