As Water Falls

oh to pour out my soul as water falls from the mountain
as rain from the sky, restless and free, drunk deeply
refreshing to the taste and restoring the body

but i am a tepid drop in a thirsty jar, cork sealed tight, top rusted shut
a warm puddle on the pavement, confined to the dirty sidewalk where passersby kick and splash and separate me from myself

so i am silent
