Anna Cates
Yin and Yang
Dark and light. Circular and intertwined . . . Two fish feed on each other, fat heads waxing into famished tails. The dark and light, alike, eat and destroy, foil their foil, subsist and subside, in life’s endless tide pool . . .
tadpoles . . . a child and bucket by the bank the old man watches from the shadows
