Occupy
What I do not find, I'll win
where water thickens and blood grows thin.
I cast my hook down deep within
and wait. I occupy my skin.
I exhale so I can breathe in.
I count the stars and watch them sin
then later listen to the din
of morning's engine. The spiders spin
their webs to trap their kin.
Is this the only way I can begin?
It seems to be. The wound's a grin
and every laugh is sorrow's twin.
While I wait I conjure winter's djinn
to turn the water thick
and the blood thin.
