Underwater cover

where the fishes

swallow & glide

 

through pools of

warm subterranean

sunlight

 

bubbles in the

permeated aqua

slide of moonlight

 

Venus like a beacon

shines above fishing

boat, midnight murmur:

 

Monkey in the trees

high tide drawing me

down water to water

 

dissolving refraction:

fish spy me with

taut suspicion

 

unblinking eye;

I float till sunset

another breath

 

another restless

night passes.
