drifting, driftwood, found along the beach, mobile project found in children's books, things to do on a rainy day, idle minds, trapped and caged, newton's laws in effect, objects in space, action and reaction, force and movement, without one there is no other, and so, drifting, wafting with the wrist, don't put the nose directly over the test tube, direct fumes might be too much, and sidelong glances, and hints and allegations, guesses and hypotheses, mere missteps, always, just missing, and lost, but in the clouds, and murky gray of a rainy cold december day, there stands a light, peeking through closed eyes, and i remember if only for a second, just remember enough to grant me peace.
