a word hangs

balanced on a thought like metal
bowing out like the tension on a fly rod
suspended on a wire
counterbalanced with an image
supporting a metaphor
spinning from the weight and inertia
a thought like a shining mirror
a pond tucked down in the valley
between verses of evergreen
and wisps of sky now refected
smell the berries and the pinecones
see the nymphs and the rainbow
watch the sky break out in ripples and summer come back as a memory
of peepers and cicada calling
what katy did.
