sometimes the only way out\nis up so i surrender myself to\nbuoyancy bubbles race me\nto the surface\n\nup out and above i continue\nto rise hands on naked arms\ncaress me as i slip from sea\nto the night sky\n\ngrindstones\nand tombstones\nare but anchors\ncut them off\nor remain forever\nfastened to the bottom\n\nalways an embrace the night\na lover accepting me without\nquestion every time i return my\nascent continues\n\ngrindstones\nand tombstones\nare but anchors\ncut them off\nor remain forever\nfastened to the bottom\n\nepw 1.4.07 perrysburg, oh
