  • HOW DEEP IS THE OCEAN

    Overlapping, crisscrossing, waves un-stilled.

    Roiled!

    Who kept track,

    Who kept time,

    One, two, each second, low, soothing,

    Lives lived in seconds,

    Seventy years, eighty years

    Who kept track,

    Undulating, crests, peaks, valleys, ups, downs,

    Joy, ecstasy, heartache, heartbreak, we attacked,

    life,

    Every second,

    Full-bodied,

    Our hot insides,

    unfathomably deep, ceaseless repetition,

    Lapping the shore,

    Ripples that hardly turned a grain of sand,

    Now,

    Out there,

    the future,

    stilled.
