Back to Basics

This is water

That’s the name of the photo
It’s never occurred to me to name an image before
But after I finished the edit, I realized I’d been addressing it by name all along

I celebrate brute physical realities
Stones, rivers, and trees
Eyes and freckles

Elemental things
They resist political wish and spin
They are what they are through themselves and no other

This is water
