Crystal Clear

Crystal Clear

It's so crystal clear

And ready to shattter. 

Just one thoughtless move

And nothing will matter.


Like well floated glass

That's pure but not annealed;

A view that's pristine,

But one bird and it's cracked.


Or slowly made ice

That is too thin to hold.

You can see the fish,

But one step it can't hold.


It is natural:

We love the crystal clear,

But it can't protect 

Anything we hold dear.


Our lives: organized.

Our beliefs: curated.

Beautiful and fragile.

And when they shatter:

Dangerous and jagged.
