What a strange creature...
Water,
Always in disguise,
Slipping in and out
Of every form we know...
First friend, then foe.
Slippery smooth necessity
Sliding into us
Until we become one.
But then it hardens
Into a cold cruelness
Easily sharpened, ready to kill...
Don't turn your back...
But then it's gone,
Dissolving into nothing,
Or so it seems,
As it hovers throughout-
A mysteriously cryptic ghost
Of a most curious being...
Water.
