Will Inman – This Water
do not waste this
water’s rare as
blood, this pulse draws from earthheart,
from the great turning
moon pulls, too,
and sun and your own thirst
every draw and shove is the beat of
god’s breath, waste this
water, waste your own
life is to cherish, no not grab but just
love
put your hands and arms to the elbows
in this stream, cup, lift, and drink this
