an anchor child born eager
underneath the universe
watches tides blow
tomorrow’s winds
through vacant months
sunlit mountains
stop to explain heartbreak
breaking rolling
young with burnt brow
you look so handsome
telling stories
mouths decide boundaries
twist gutter spill
skyline twitch
shout
swim
fester
depths swooping down
on oars of gravity
asking pitched boats
to knuckle homeward
slipping endless into thunder.
