Soul:where this tree grows and learns to drink without getting drunk
Soul soaks into existence everywhere except my rough, contemptuous personality.
Friend:intelligence, sometimes the soul water, bread, a cave where we sit with friends.
Invisible bowl to drink from,
health coming back to a patient.
Definite statement, pulsing spring, cloud.
I'll stop, not because words have become tedious but to keep the bird from sitting on its branch.
