We will watch

in the clear water

the cloudy reflection of ourselves

which, surprisingly, will have not changed that much

although we had hoped that

the passage of time

would have transformed us at least a little

but we were measuring ourselves up

against our wounds

So we will resume hobbling along

one step forward, two steps back
