sit by the water
planned or unplanned
you will
silenced by
simply being there
stillness
unnecessarily understated
naturally
sit by the water
let it speak
listen
it knows
how thought is quenched
as if a thirst
sit by the water
you will
you know

when will you look
or when will you see
the eyes looking back
belong only to thee
how can you know
everything you see
decisions of the future
are not what they seem
what have you noticed
and what does it mean
is our fractured reality
caught up in a scheme

Verbally or non-verbally, regardless of method, media or motivation, expression or self-expression is an important component of who you are and how you react to and interact with the world surrounding you.
There are many ways of giving notice or getting noticed.
It matters not how you express yourself, only that you do.

What do you understand?
What do you struggle with?
What are you capable of?
What will you accomplish today?
What will happen if you
you reach a little further?

One ought — in these days of disease and deception, wanton greed and calculated corruption — to be able to step aside and rediscover what life is all about.
Caught up in the noise, the rhetoric and nonsensical sensibilities, we should each find time, however swift and fleeting, to allow art to influence our nature; and being. And grace.
Create your own solace in the midst of this madness.
Take responsibility for your self.
Be mindful, if only for a moment, of what art is there, and what it can do for you.
You are better off in knowing.
