On the cover of a literary review,
a deer splashes through the sea
in six time-lapse small drawings,
one leap after another into foamy tide.
My brother might reappear,
a joyful bather engaged with waves.
The artist writes the jumping deer
portrays impermanence.
Pages turned, the far-fetched deer
still plays in spume with a brother
who, so easily, said good bye.
