Fount

I used to be a fount
A source from which flowed the finest of prose
A never-ending flow of vivid imagery
Used to be
Lately
My spring has been the quiet drip-drip-drip of a well running dry
Why?
Has my pen lost its edge
This well-springed source seemingly has been sprung
As if someone tapped in and pulled it all in another direction.
Dimension? Causality?
What happened to the inner poet within me?

One tear…

One tear falls
drips
Orbits the moon
Drops down
   into the cosmic goo
That is us.

We separate, you and I
   into beings divine
searching out purpose
seeking out life

It only takes one tear
   to make a tidal wave
One tear to break apart
   a house of cards
   a house of hearts.

A title wave
   of a grander kind
   full of hidden meanings and secret doors
Where the right tear
   might just be the key
   you didn't even know you possessed.

Like diamonds,
   they fall.

One
   by
      one.

Catch it.

Drip
   drop
      drown.

One tear.
