Tears For Sale

Is there
Anyone needful
Of these petrified tears
I hank as
Seeds of life
For sale?
They once were wet,
Limpid and warm
Though now dry
Hard and cold -
But still
The salt is there -
Soluble.
These tears,
They are vulnerable
Ready to dissolve,
To melt
And run again -
To wet and limpid warm,
For a price.
You name it,
You pay it
And they are yours.

Dated 3/6/1983
