Noah Gapsis

Cedar Mountains

Stone carp swim in sweet water.
I watch them with a luminous face.
Unexpected boxes are dotted about the pond.
Weeds of rope thrash my legs.
Some unbalanced wood creates a shrewd pier,
which I sit on dangling my feet
above the water.
I dare not go onto the sand
for it is like fierce nails to my feet.
I will stay here in the cedar Mountains.
