Trying to keep a grip on things
but decided to jump this ship
when it swings a bit closer to that Island.

I'll become a Crusoe
take it slow, but
no man Friday,
maybe a woman on Tuesday
who knows.

What harm can there be
sunbathing under a coconut tree
free from the worries and cares of this life,
the woman on Tuesday just might be my wife
who knows?
