Just straight knees
Sundays and Mondays
The identical teacup
The same sunrays
No shades of gestures
No laughter
To react to the stir
From the slightly
open window
Only the threat
From the scriptural gates
Submerge the vessel
Into the ocean
Avoid the slip
Remove the bees
Just straightened knees
And the tranquil sea
