Life-Line
stormy sea of life
taking in water
frustration begets
panic
panic begets
drowning
in murky cold bottomless
imagination
of
death
by
the breathing of water
the last moments
conscious of the relinquish thought
to give up oxygen
for liquid in lungs
what thoughts surface then
thoughts of love of life of dreams of hopes
or
the futility of struggle
amid massive waves
onslaught of never ending
insurmountable odds of survival
or
is there finally
peace
quiet beautiful nether world of the sea
where sound is waves
gentle masked light filtered
and movement is slowed in motion
and grace
peaceful burial
in
the
sea of life
life-line save me
