feet bolted down
rivets on a cloud
winds spit it out
at once cast me down
down down down
borrow and cast
your mirror one way
a fool takes mast
ships to struggle
in a cycle
an ever long wind
and a canyon of waves
blows the frogs
into his face
no pity from rain
you dont know
these atlantic skies
at least you can
try to hold your
head up right
maritime mystery
shepherd chest
chased endlessly
armada arms
in a boxing broth
they wave to rinse
the shoulders off
double down left to go
phaser lines grow
trails to close
of calling your own
detour dives
ghost bones ungrown
new habits are formed
best to before
still wet in its storm
holding scores
terminal hulls
paddles swing full
sea sines and horns
orchestra rows
till its shored
