To Some Degree
By Lonnie Monka
My mind is not the ocean,
whose depths are more difficult to reach
than the moon–
whose depths are more difficult to reach
than the moon–
the ocean is not clouds,
though, to some degree, we can see them
as the same water–
clouds are my mind
pulled in many directions, and–
perceptively formless.
