wading, waiting no more

Poem Artwork

teetering, on the very edge,
i gave up and ventured in.

waiting...
... you do not follow.

wading ...
.... the water tickles
laps at my ankles
ravels my shins,
well past my knees.

waiting ...
... you do not follow.

wading ...
dangling limp,
my wrists submit
sea weeds and algea
adorn my hips.

waiting ...
... you do not follow.

wading ...
... breasts on wave,
then drowned,
neck and shoulders
shrug on a liquid cowl.

waiting ...
... you do not follow.


wading ...
... final descent
water replaces air,
my eyes are erased
my ears open to the sea.

waiting ...
... i do not hear you calling.

... done wading.

Anne, why follow? He has better things to do than follow you to nowhere. And Anne, he may even get satisfaction knowing he is the cause of your demise. I know you are too smart to let this happen. You have a better solution in your heart. Bill Murray

"...neck and shoulders shrug on a liquid cowl..." Love that line. Great imagery here. I sure hope you waited an hour after eating before you waded.
