Forsooth, the narwhale (2017)

 

poetry forsooth floats human harbor's better

   climes, amid dank dredging's sea-baptized

detritus, whittled perspective wood -shredders,

   saw quohog & seasoned salts, capsized;


poetry forsooth fleets flounder schools sleeker,

   able to jet unjittered---- thru coral razors

in sentence bubbles ......evasion's art meeker

   as bait glows or feigns, hiding small lasers;


poetry forsooth claws nebulae from the net

   allowing humans to catch what gods only get

rare trappings of mind, as prescient yet

   drapes flesh over horizon, a personal pet;


   poetry forsooth clams all Thing all so deep,

   butter bay washings, my chowder of sleep.
