I LIVED UNDERWATER

This is another poem from my last collection The Wait of Water [contact me if you want to purchase a copy]. Once again Alison Wilson produced a wonderful illustration, thank you Alison.

as I slept

I lived underwater

no longer earthbound

cast free as a fish in blue currents

I swam through REM and

awoke with the sun

my body strangely weighted

beached in tangled sheets

It is a simple poem, I like how it questions reality.

Here's The Decemberists with a real ear worm.

Until next time.
