Watery Thoughts

Water dripping from the faucet I wish to tap in to it and flow Like red river from indigo soul Writing something that grows Like a seed esteemed and springing In each reader who is a believer And even those who are deceivers A word so good one salivates A poem so inspiring it breaks chains Chains of doubt Chains of caste Chains of illness Chains of blocks of all kinds Let the waters wash away strongholds And create in me in you a new thing

I love how you wrap this one up, and the message on how powerful words are to a poet. The art of the possible. Nicely done, Karen.

Love this. Maybe you can condense its meaning for the contest of Nette as Shape of Water!
