Taken as a movement of volume
deeper waters, with their greater space
need not speed their waters through;
whereas in shallows, thin or narrow,
the stream must push its water
quickly over the tumbling pebbles.
Also, I noticed
the water shivers most in those eddies
where it hides behind a stone, idle;
the smoothest surfaces are moving
heading somewhere, intentional,
a volume, a body in motion.
