Object Lesson



Object Lesson


I like objects in or near water.
I like the contrast.
I like the tension and unspoken conversation
between substances comprised of very different elements.
I like the drama.

So now I’ll get to be the foreign element,
as I traverse through some wilderness
and see some extremely gorgeous parts of this planet.
I’ll be another object at the sea.
And I don’t object to that one bit.

Rocks! Rocks! Rocks!
Reminds me of something I wrote a while ago.
I'll post it again
