5. SAMENESS<br />
One falls in<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> same river<br />
when <strong>the</strong> waters are rhyme<br />
when <strong>the</strong> pulse is time<br />
and all honeys coincide.<br />
Leeches emerge, vacant as moons,<br />
algae streamers braid <strong>the</strong>mselves a sleep.<br />
One falls, electric in moments<br />
one pulls, is resumed, warms,<br />
forgets—The rush inks<br />
till tracks are subsumed,<br />
till <strong>the</strong> cold intervention<br />
of liquid aches <strong>the</strong> body<br />
alive, back in<strong>to</strong> feeling,<br />
back <strong>to</strong> dead happenstance,<br />
fakes it in<strong>to</strong> his<strong>to</strong>ry,<br />
his<strong>to</strong>ry through it <strong>to</strong> life.<br />
