ACCOUNT OF MY DAYS
Sequence: 3
ON THE EIGHTH DAY
God made puddles
and left them everywhere
so that some could drink
some could cool their feet
some could leave their children
in a world small enough
to have everything they need
others
having dropped their faces
and forgotten where
come looking
and find at their feet
a wet impure mirror
with a face they can have
as long as they forget
their other face
others lost completely
having left behind
all landmarks
find a puddle
and can claim again
something they know
