Rippling
The face looking back
Wrinkled beyond its years
By disturbances in the waters
Distorted then still then distorted again
What you became
Become
Becoming
One visage across time
Interrupted by pulses
From a rock tossed out
Knees in the dirt
Pebbles like a side stitch
Sharp pains
Up, brushed
Reflection internalized
Time to go
