Parking in Limbo

seals wear brittle

where water drips

spread like veins

a gift of texture

to dull asphalt

 

a smeared bottle

passed around

as if sacrament

that brings spirit

to drab souls

Great imagery,

and concisely evocative, but I have read it over and over and don't get that first line, cheers, Jess
