Tidal emotions
                Ebb and
                            Flow
Coming and going
                    With the phase of the moon
                                                   Or day of the week
In remission they sit
                     at Times
                             leeward of the conscious mind
Somedays a deluge
                      Engulfs
                                Me­
Others, more mild,
                    The water stands
                                    unstirred (but still there)
most days though,  I find
                that I'm wallowing
                                Infatuated in a warm drizzle
