Possibilities

Ten drops of ink on the ground.

What not could the ink have done?

A student’s book, a portrait’ look.

Engraving on a crown golden,

Or on a piece of jewelry broken.

The soul of a lover’s letter,

Or of a suicide note.

A name on a written report,

A child’s written first prose.

A novel’s fabulous ending,

Or an exam’s answer.

Names of clothes trending,

Or a poem just like this.

All these possibilities left behind,

By ten drops of ink on the ground.
