the end of water<br />
Tim Heffernan<br />
let the water do the work<br />
to find entropy<br />
to smooth things<br />
the dried breakfast cereal<br />
the burnt pots and pans<br />
the bends in rivers<br />
the edges of the land<br />
the mountains<br />
the off-leash beaches<br />
the skins of things<br />
the washed-up sea dragons<br />
the unending plasticity<br />
as I dry<br />
the water leaves me<br />
sunken faced<br />
parched and rasping<br />
but where does your water go<br />
and did i breathe in yours<br />
even as you gasped<br />
even as i swabbed your mouth<br />
even as you died<br />
