A Cloud
by Shawn Smith - August 22, 2006
At one moment a thick formation
then dissipation
At one moment presumably so permanent
then a distant memory
At one moment taking on one shape
then another
At one moment a promise of things to come
then a reminiscence of things past
At one moment the ability to capture the imagination
then a forgotten memory
At one moment the illusion of strength
then nothingness
At one moment I thought I was a man
when in fact I am a cloud
