A Loon’s Deep Dive
Mar 18, 2024
Where do you go, Loon
When you Dive
Deep
Under
Water?
Oh, I know where you are,
What I desire to know is this:
Where are You?
It’s not my wish
To anthropomorphize You.
I am merely curious of your Consciousness.
What do you See, Feel, Hear, Smell and Taste?
Do you have other Senses to which
I am not Privy?
Submerged, I like to Imagine,
Your Concerns of the Past fade Away
And Anxieties of the Future are Non-existent.
Maybe, I envy You
Because You are Present to
A Moment uniquely Your Own.
On reflection, maybe, I am simply Jealous–
Jealous that I am not Present to Myself.
Maybe, that’s the Better Question to ask:
When am I when You Dive
Deep
Under
Water
And
Disappear?
