Poem: Liquidity

 

Liquidity

 

lonely escherian skeletons

rib a lake into canters.

their bones complicate its old face.

 

they crosshatch into tigers,

trellis through pregnant angles,

a clash of stripes on curved stilts 

that somehow manage to glide.

 

these songful sways,

such curvy green-gold-blues,

tease the senses like a protean harp,

strum spine, graze chest.

 

you, too, they sing, a lonely skeleton,

footsteps that spread to branch,

scions of symbol and deed,

ripples on a page.

The sort of thing we ought to think on when we hear "liquidity."
