just another snowman

This isn’t water,

The loop and hoop of what you are

It isn’t water, doesn’t flow

Doesn’t spread out, on a table

And form a shallow lake

The form you take

I know it well

It isn’t water

Doesn’t rage and swell

The sun writes you on concrete

You drip and crack and bake

And whisper through fences

This and that

This isn’t water, isn’t cloth

The form you take
