what there is
may not be there
and what may come
has always been
what is a rock
is tomorrow’s sand
your deepest wish
buried in your hand
the seed you sow
may not become
the plant envisioned
but it will find its way
if you water it
change eats
from the bowl of the past
slowly emptying
the reservoir of certainty
with each spoonful of dwindling prospects
remember
you’re being nourished
