esopus creek (Free verse) by balthazar
The fish lies wriggling in place under the rainy surface under these logs and dead and dying tree roots under the rainy surface the saplings that never had a chance still trying to reach up into the stunted gray sunless light the water so still and dark and out of place you think you might go into it and come out somewhere else. This is where I drop my line.
