walk on water



i, jeebus, shall walk upon thee, oh great sea
you let me slip into crevices between h2o molecules
flailing limbs try to tread thee to keep head dry
failing limbs go limp, water balloon lungs

sliver



how long did you sit and wait before
you punctured sock and skin
how far will you lodge yourself before
i remove you from my body
