Like a pond that can't be separated from its shores, poets of flow and reflection ascend
the way light suffuses through deep waters.

Along comes Orpheus in faded jeans,
a flannel shirt, down-filled jacket, and
fisherman's boots. A floppy hat hides
his florescent eyes.

Plugged into a tree, his electric guitar's
108 strings each play an original chord,
while the pond waves to the altitude of
the muse's empyrean riffs.
