Overflow

Between the folding of the page
on the cracking line of words
in the hesitation of a sentence
I’m manipulative planting signs

It’s the overflow
that I would like to lead
in one or the other way
to let it stream slower

to irrigate

and give it time to sprout
in my head as sumptuous green
maybe the leave is nearer to me
than the roots I cannot see

or should I let me drown
to swallow the whole tsunami
and wait for the ebb tide
till something will float
to the surface?
