Armada

^[+

 

is it possible

that not a single soul

saw me cross the fjord

a broad day skinborne

without broadcast?

an obstruction of sight

behind some tree or

coalescence of ‘em

likened to a pear stab,

penetrated silver soup

my fleshy leaves falling to

the dualist worlds of waters

shoes slung around his neck

that first cold foothold with the acorns attacking her breast -

 

worn over-solemn writer of a pendant,

 

un-rended - he accepted it in silence, quick as a single step -

next the third, only felt against the pining world

 

to free itself of standing still; she was for a moment, only heard;

 

rushed herself down and spoke a poem faster than the speed of any word

while it shook him, legs tied up in a stance,

it was no less that single leftward glance left,

to slip him

and it’s right to dryness all starboard

and it spoke;

“look ahead,” it said,

“carry him”

(a) left hand unclenched it’s perch,

stipulating stable as it’s

windows lurched -

 

“in!” she screamed

and i could feel her will

staunch against it,

holding everything

 

 

 

baring sets of teeth

that i had never even seen

 

i commanded myself to get over her

no one heard it

but the deep
