The rock spoke between the lines
Paul Barclay
The rock spoke between the lines
The tree held the river's attention
The stones poked up bald heads along the paths
As the earth crumbled into itself
And the wind demonstrated its presence
And the river went on
And the clouds formed and deformed
And then disappeared entirely
The trail went away
As no one walked down it
