Ebb and Flow

This I am,

sometimes full,

sometimes empty.

Firefly blinking off and on.

An ebb and flow. Me, not me.                              faulty wiring


Asked who I am

by well-meaning others,

space opens wide between us.

I am this instant.

I am not.                                                                       light flickers


Ground shifts

from here to not here.

Waves crash, recede.

Churn of sand,

Salt water.                                                                  give and take


The more I

yearn to exist, to be

unequivocally crystal clear,

the more I simply

disappear.                                                                 here not here
