buoyancy

It could be her
It could be…another
It could be no one in particular
Or a thing imagined
Or a thing ghosted
            from past interplay

Isn’t that the way she thinks?
            The way she writes?

That girl kicking out…smooth
          in the floating backstroke
          gazing at the sepia-Gray sky
          creating her own calm
              her own buoyancy
              her own groove 

of being still

letting the current take her...places
