Mythic Bath

Dreaming of a Mythic Bath

in vast Wine-Bright waters

Thick but not alarming

Sudsing in the body of a Naiad

Spirit relishing the unity of substance and form

Water body in water body

Drunk with cleansing

and yet

There is need

See me into existence

Witness my folklore

but then

Remember the strange scene

Acting it out, become the myth

As your wash your hair tomorrow
