Notes About The Poem

kite and tail vs Lake and stream

Lake and Strean versus Kite and Tail

Listen to poem:

Bed Bottoms, Wet Entrails

Lakes lie limpid imponderable, 
glistening and glassy.
Looking like kites hanging 
suspended in the sky,
towing streams as shimmering tails,
wriggling in the wind.

Lakes and streams are inseparable, 
codependent, bedfellows,
each alike each other,
with wet bed bottoms
and wet watery entrails.
