Nathan Martin Poet Ballad

Tea

aqua dependent,  thirsting for 
   the mechanical tin priest.

 the lord is in the kettle when
 the water begins to move. 


 now there is a river without reason 
 that flows from the faucet.

 the faucet is cheap and leaks when
  turned all the way to the right.

 the lord is in the cheap faucet 
 for the lord is in all water.


  there is a flame on the stove.

 the lord is not in the flame 
because it is to late for that.

 Camomile divinity in a tea cup 
at half past 9..
