Ice

Bath tonight, my movement in the water forcing rings of water outward on the surface, showing me the tsunami in Japan, over and over again. How to comprehend it? Such a tiny bit of the earth swallowed up momentarily, but what universes were consumed in that moment.

Out to the porch for what has become a rare night visit out. Moon hazy above the melting snow, my bare feet crunched the ice of today's leftover rain.
