BABBLE

I sit quietly and watch the

Light

Refracted

it is

what

I

think

sound waves

must look like

It becomes

a gentle

Rothko

moving as I float

in the warm water

having

the Space

all to myself

the arched wooden ceilings

seem both

like a Nordic Cathedral

and

a Shinto Shrine

All

at Once

Neither of which I’ve ever been to

but

like the sound waves

I imagine what they look like

and in my deepest being

I

Know

what I feel is

True

and

Right

And from that

Knowing

a made up

Babbling

Lullaby

Bubbles up

out of me

and for no other

Reasons

I sing it out loud

Repeating the refrain

Over and Over

Again

Simply

Because

I Can

Simply

Because

I Am
