water

avast the pilot.
i look aghast at the wreck.
fly the pirate seas.

a square triangle
is bigger than my tiny brain.
math solves the problem.

can you feel the burn?
heart and soul’s yearning fire.
struggle onward friend.

the looseness of time.
the milky whitewash of trials.
the turning of mulch.

guitar skipping notes.
schoolboys skipping over stones.
thoughts and melodies.

a cackle up high.
a dive bomber from the sky.
gasping for water.
