hopeful tides
some seas are called dead
although they don´t know it yet
and still indulge in memories
(or maybe heat-spurred fantasies)
of creeks or even rivers.
what´s there to do but waiting
for mercy from above.
rain, they know (and hope),
dilutes the salt a little while.
like any other sea
the dead ones feel the moon
in all its tempting sway
while arid skies keep drinking
and tides wear out.
