This is what you do
And how you see it:

You try again,
Failing in the task
Brought before you
By a pair of cold hands.

Again,
You strike the metal,
That sound ringing
Across the empty plain.

This is what you do
And how you see it:

Swords crossed
Upon your desk
In perpetual tension.

This is what I do
And how I see it:

Everything is water.

D.H. Lee
