Atop a Cataract

To stand opaque in a calf deep river
.....level with a sun diffusing in its own sundown
pondering reclaims the ingrained solitude
.....in a brief stance while roiled nature passes
bound up in twisted muscle melange
.....course over bone about volatile organs
held while time surpasses ancestral
.....years that segment unfastened elements
surrounding in a lift-white spindrift cloud
.....errant like constant mist from the tumult
sky that is recondite with a fathomless
.....edge drop of splendid useless water and light
basis that began symbiotic evolution
.....promulgating the entry for more friction
after a spring forth of blue colors
.....absorbed red spectrums into lengthening hues
to an eventual ocean not seen only a scene
.....disquiet while negated by falling bravery
across the overhanging incident of night
.....collected in a plungepool of solidified stones
