here and now

waters are rising
cresting our overwrought necks
straining for succour

before fools set in
let nectar run from your chin
and banish regret

out of the first fire
unplanned convergences breed
we are stochastic

lauded, their fetid breath drowns
rays of civil light

eyes musing her meagre life
‘we’re here with the stars’

our collective hum
a trace in the cold dark depths
may yet speak volumes

we no longer hear
the fox’s step, the owl’s ruffle
walled off as we are

shearwater circles
bleached corals crying below
the wind must keep him
