Paper Thin
This meandering thought pilfers,
that a zone I seek but not confer
with my mind and body;
but my crisp soul.
I always shoot an arrow,
in a shallow water hole.
Fishing for some semblence
of thought, only to retract.
For what I seek is fantasy,
but what I know is intact.
Maybe a crumb of me
forms the bait I put in.
If all goes well, the fish I will find,
within this lukewarm din.
It will be my own valentine that day
for what we seek as love is a shadow,
paper thin.
