Haven't touched the ground in days;
   momentum multiplies,
stretching rubber cartoon legs
   over skyscrapers
as clouds collect in my beard.

My sails take wind when it moves
   and
      sometimes the water
is undisturbed glass,

so if out
         upon it
                I should step
it surely would consume me.

          My ripple
      in time    would
           radiate

blending molecule for molecule
WhoseMomentumIsConstant,

to meet a distant shore
where my soul can rest,

enjoying mango and coconut
beneath a blanket of stars
that teach me to remember
the importance of reflection.
