Diarist
a dogpaddle of pain
carries urgent words
into an undertow of truth,
which drags them off somewhere,
leaves them stranded on a sinking beach.
a place of half-liquid sand
sculpted by frantic tides as
feverish as a pulse,
the interplay emotional,
dim and yet flashy with minnows,
madcap in their weave and veer,
above the deeps.
