Sinking
Chest deep
In the morning’s blue reflection
Running cold
Swept southward
At perfect leisure
An anchor’s pulled
From its grave,
Of a dark riverbed
And the thrills of lost year’s
Unreel in my head
Overrun
And afloat
Sailing past high noon
To its misty brine
Indisposed
Featherlight
The jealous cry of the shore
Falls hollow,
Out of reach
In the cold blue mirror
Leaving sunlight to preach
