water under the sun

it’s really true
there’s nothing new

whelmed
was my thought to chew

not over,
nor under,
my mind-word stew

it’s all been done before

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be;
and that which is done is that which shall be done;
and there is nothing chadash under the shemesh.

learned some things
not new, but new to me
there’s always that.

whelmed
is water

deluged
flooded
engulfed
overflowed

really wet
but not overly
yet

I guess?

water at the chin
not in the lungs

underwhelmed
seems
a silly word
to ever use
