Inexorably,

The (Drip)

This gets a bit confusing at the end, but it is simply following the progression of the poem. :)

Painting with words. The amazing thing here, Ben, is that you've given a real sense of movement to your word-painting--while actually saying something and creating a definite mood. (To me, a very amusing "saying" and mood.)
Another innovative offering from a young man destined for great things--provided, of course, that the world lasts long enough.
