waterisneaky.
water is sneaky. also, patient, and insidious.
it’ll beat against you for thousands of years
in big waves
until it smoothes you down
or breaks you apart.
or it’ll lie still in quiet pools,
and insidiously work
on the weakest
point
leaking
and
dripping
and moving.
And then when water does slowly sneak
inside, and lie in wait,
then it can FREEZE and EXPAND with
TREMENDOUS FORCE and BREAK
(so water is sneaky,
incidious
and
patient.)
while SOUND is slippery
(and sneaky)
SOUND slip slides off every flat surface
SOUND double or triple slip slides..
skips from here
to there
(so you think what came from there
came from here.)
SOUND plays tag with yr ears
and lies
a lot.
Plus, in destructive force, SOUND
(shatters)
whereas
water
wears away
