Something will happen, soon
Sault Sainte Marie

Little wonder                   

You dance on endless seas       

In a spinning, imperfect pirouette   

At the schoolyard       

In the year we found the eclipse                

On sidewalks frozen mirrors

.

There we are on the swingset  

Or maybe we’re swimming   

Or drawing              

Or laughing ourselves into oblivion

On days electric inside waves of white light

.

And now here we are           

Inside those same waves in different years      

Oceans and colors apart
