Saturday

                              

This perfectly sun-glistening Saturday in mid-March,

I find myself not, precisely speaking, adrift,

Yet not exactly moored, either.

 

Perhaps I'm a force in between disoriented and shorebound,

A wave rolling across a waterless ocean,

Going nowhere, slowly, not under its own momentum.

 

Maybe I'm a dust speck, a dandelion seed, a star,

Floating beneath an invisible bell jar

Enclosing, in an absolute vacuum, millions of Milky Ways.

 

Possibly, I'm something neither animate nor intangible,

Nothing, in a perpetual state of about-to-be everything,

An idea containing infinities, without a mind to dream itself alive.
