A white angel                        
Grazes on by,          
So aloof yet astute
That it brings a tear to my eye

Gleaming with pride
I watch her grow
Alas, the time has come
And I must go              

So few dark nights
Were you not there
That to tear myself away        
Fills my heart with despair

They were paid a dollar but taxed to a dime
That's why they should ****
on company time.

His mind is screaming that he’s on flat earth
but his body sways from an entire week’s worth
of pints and ***** on a wave-crashed boat.

Rolling waters (from the wind and rain?),
All while two lovers begin co-mingling,
and deep into night he’s lost while thinking:

“My mind screams of solid ground,
My body tilts and tumbles ‘round,
I think of the one who no longer waits.
And though I’m not alone,
my heart still breaks”
