If I squint and mix
my green sheets
and my greybluesea walls,
and the (bubbles on the window)
I can make an ocean
If I can make an ocean,
Maybe, just
maybe
I can be a mermaid
Swim, twirl, speed, spin
Up down, fast, slow
Twirl, twirl down down down
To a quieter place
Still see the light,
but far off, in the kind of
distance
I
can
ignore
until
I
until I
until I am
until I am ready
until I am ready to
until I am ready to deal
until I am ready to deal with
until I am ready to deal with it
until I am ready to deal with it all
Because right now,
I'm just a mermaid,
Maybe like the ice-skaters,
Body bending gracefully,
Spinning so fast I become
The blur that I am
Yes, a mermaid.
That would be nice.

I'm actually early this week! I'm at my favorite pub, d'Verse. They are pretty mellow over there, which is why I like to hang out. You can too. Linky still open. Promote #d'Verse, @d'Verse please.
