Subtraction

Liquidate any uptight

Feelings that wrap around your arms

The great and mighty ocean 

Take and take

Removing all the

Empty words and stones

That no longer deserve to be there

I walk along the shoreline

Realizing that the world was sinking

Like Venice

Deeper and deeper 

Ripples of thoughts and seas will

Grip our lands

I slowly sink my feet into the sands

Wishing for the

Taking and the giving

To feel the same

It is never the same

Stars and sparrows

Sing to me as I wander

Far from disappearing horizons

Trying to find how less

Is really more
