What more proof do you need! jagged
left behind –a beautiful stone
torn to pieces and near its heart
a tiny rock half drift, half moonlight
that blossomed to become the opposite shore
–all these years in the open
though every wave still smells from stone
the way this sea from its start
was never sure, even now a doubt
splashing as your blood or throat
or better yet next time at breakfast
reach out with just your breath
and god-like touch the boiling tea
hold up the evidence, the first wave
and the emptiness it counted on.
