Drawing lines.

Do you ever catch yourself becoming convinced of your imagination? We draw these rules in our minds thinking to hold back the sea that is life.  Inevitably the tide comes in and either our lines are  washed away or we drown trying to draw them in the waves.  

Drawing lines

At a line drawn in the sand

you draw one in the stars

and cry at all creation

your line will not be crossed.

But earth turns round across your line

and stars hold in their place.

Creation’s crossing crosses you

Sitting alone in the sand,
drawing lines.
