Paddling The Ocean
Move the chains,
shift the paradigm
in such a way
that it might shift
tectonic plates,
alter the *******
coastline!
Change the channel,
alter your state!
(shift, alter, change!)
So,
what now?
Cut ties with
all your life’s
toxicity?
What’s that look like?
Under the covers?
Staring at a screen?
Petting your cat?
Paddling
the online ocean
of lazy lies.
It’s safer to swim with sharks.
At least their teeth are honest.
