No Known Animal

Sea-glass chimes twinkle like a

sibling to rain on a gutter,

both equally eloquent in

their own ways.

The gutter redirects you back to the dirt

but the mollusk siphons you up just to

spit you back into a world that

leaves you as unique as throwing

tap water into the sea.

Yet what if it wasn’t significance

that is to be learned from the

rain or the sea, but value?

The value of resolution in each

tangible aspect of the earth

is more significant but

less significant

all the same.
