Elses

There is a well of tepid water well enough never alone
under meniscal murk holes in the brick hold shellfish

Shiver shellfish your previous homes forgave you
this water already forgot your moves did you

Fall deeper asleep mid-day you did not know the sun
thickened your new ceiling ensuring luminous you

Must lose your hope to choose your timid peace
full of never and forever until your end

Times enough to have crawled here let your
shelf connect to your cosmos our urgency
