My floundering relevance
Is a tremendous anchor
Ensuring I’ll sink
Cloaked in fright and anguish

Beneath the froth
Of friend and foe
Their jealous clamoring
Raging tussle

My passionate stirring
Withers to a halt
As I jet for the depths
Bound to the weight of loss

I become ragged
An uncaring bottom-dweller
Devoid of all couth
Any urge,
To charge for the glimmering surface

Below the surge
Of salt and satisfaction
Beneath man’s eternal rage
I carve my hearth and home

Farewell to currents
To the ominous roar of trends
Your mindless scuffling
Can no longer, phase my steps
