particle of sand makes its home in a nest full of others and

large trees make room for others so they may shed bloodred tears when they die [alone]

but is the water still clean or have we condemned it to our own sin?

form jagged edges to hold your image in place and study

the suicidal curvature in the darkness of solitaire and realize

it's not what the mirror reflects that's important 

only why it reflects the way it does.
