The Jellyfish

Moon jelly lights up
Darkest ocean trench ever deep,
Yet it feels no sting.

 

Brave, bobbing carefree
Like flashlight under blanket,
Numb and tingling in the dark.

 

Freestyle

Hands together, pray.
I bend my knees
And dive,
Swimming stroke
By stroke by stroke;
This is all I know --
No God, no Faith,
No Master --
Just forever
Float

 

Make a Wish

Leftover lashes
Dust to my pillow
Wish for me,
Your lunar friend,
To orbit in your dreams.


Remember fondant faces,
Painting smeared to smooth.
You have missed your stop,
Go back and gather
She-loves-you-
She-loves-you-nots
