Mimesis

You and I

a cool breeze
sweeping the place
calming all
living and dead

mighty waves
frothing
dancing
embrace the rocks
crying
for they can’t see
what lies beyond

a cloud
hanging
in infinite blue
immovable
in defiance
unlike the rest

the great white north
barren
blinding
terribly alone
grieving

this city
this house
this door
this table
this book
you and i
all alike
