Sordid sea,
Wax the lazy beat.
Sink these words fast.
Please, woman, swim.
Pant on the water's edge,
Atop the flood's tongue.
If I fall behind,
I'll ask the Sky,

Rainbows for punctuation,
And darkness for endings.
Moonbeams will tell of romance,
And sunsets for heartache.
Nothing will be left untold,
As I bask on the beach,
Reading the story
Written in the sky.
