capsize, anyone?
i’m as bad as the sails on a ship
self torn holes in them
so that no-one can get off
or pass by
because there is no land any more
and no water touches my lips
though i float
god, i wish to crash
to capsize and heave over
to take the ocean in
pint by pint
as it folds me down
in its bodied embrace
sinks me slow
until i hit the bottom
and have nowhere else to go.
