“The Waters Then” by Impaled Peach

LEARN

that feet may mar Juturna’s spring

with trampled dust debris,

but wind will move the tarnished tide to sea;

that though she flies, the cooing dove

will never know to sing;

that no decree

from up above

can save our love;

that weakened, we

can’t but a string

in Cupid’s crowded quiver

shove

KNOW

that I step once into a river

but cannot again,

for waters now were not the waters then,

and I and myself past are different men;

that if you douse the flame of care

I’ll greet you with a shiver;

that even when

the stream runs rare

or flame lacks air

in Neptune’s den,

they still deliver

till there’s not a thing

to spare

Between sheets warm of earth and cool of sky

This is no spring that wakens at the dawn
what should have been awakened all along.

I feel the warmth of winter through the breeze
stay buried in the bone of sleepless trees

whose buds are fat and seasoned with the salt
left waiting for a snow that did not fall.

And should they waken now, how they would find:
capricious spring has left them all behind.
