Fluid Dynamics

Fluid Dynamics

We come to most people an echo
free-falling
until we collide with the hard places
in them, and bounce back--

but I went through you like water
rushed over your precipices
and pooled in your hollows--

was nothing but flowing.
Now I've run your course,
I find you in my currents,

but I wish
that I could hear you
in the shape of my voice
ringing over the peaks.
