Murky Pool

Deep
Dark
What lies
At the bottom of this
Murky pool?

Good
Evil
Darkness
Light
A Child
An Ancient
Vanity
Humility
Life
Death

I slip on the rocks
Down I plunge
And I realize
I am the pool

What lies on the bottom?

who
has replaced the child
why
is she gone
where
is the happy little girl
that used to hide
under that face?
