YES, THE THIRST


 


The eyes run at the speed of thirst.
Yes, the eyes. Close to the margins of a mouth.
Yes, a mouth. Quiet of surging torrents.
Of flowing beyond the course between margins.
Yes, a mouth. Close to words. That run
at the speed of not being said when the eyes
yes, the eyes, run by them. And fail to drink.

Sad are those eyes that do not take time to quench their thirst.

With eyes that appreciate the words which quench my thirst,
