Joe's Life






Swimming:

    Swimming

Nude in the ocean.
The sky, blue,
the water, green and
flecked with gold.
I leap with each wave that passes
trying not
to be carried away.

I am carried away.
I am overcome and washed out
into deep water.
My clothes are on the shore.
My car keys, in my pants pocket.
My wife, at work.

No one knows I am here
drowning
nude in the ocean.
The sky, blue, the water,
green and flecked with gold.
