To be Robinson Crusoe
or even Ishmael
a tiny slice of heaven
or smaller touch, of hell
Salt and sea, and water
adrift away from land
just a sailor's dream
no wish, and no demand
Sans greater call Poseidon
or mermaids with urgent need
swimming in the ocean
as ancient, elder, bleed
The waters older than eden
the want of desire, defined
yearning briny shores
one we've never left
behind
