Tidepool Mind
Lifting up starfish and barnacles
they search tidepools for their minds
but they'll not find them.
They've been gone for quite some time
blown out by the violent tides of life
They're tangled up in the kelp beds now.
Barely hanging on..
The next stop is that deep water nest...
Bitten in half
drifting to the bottom
where things live out their lives
without song-half rotted
where blackness has no concept
of
light.
