sea.worthy

seaworthy to be

we wore layers upon layers

thick wool caps to be 

landworthy laced our boots tight

to be worthy to be 

we wore our hearts out 

unfurled them off a post

gave them to all 

the elements 

our adversaries 

did not stand 

a chance

small by the sea

the ocean swallowed the red sun

whole. you and me tucked behind a blanket

this sandy realm gone twilight i feel 

so small by the sea and it's good

why had we not gone swimming? 

had i forgot... in the body

the memory pulled me up

with a start. the mind 

cannot fathom the sinister
