Drifting
from #AncientTexan · host #AncientTexan
Drifting toward the waterfall Miles up ahead The boat rudderless Small leaks wetting my feet The morning air against my face The sun bright, eyes squinting A cowbird not singing on a reed The tackle box spilled Lures floating, some sinking in the water The brown water in my soggy tennis shoes. My friend didn't come with me Said she didn't want to fish But I think she didn't want me I should jump out Take my chances, swim toward shore I sit wondering why she said 'no' Her hand pulled from mine Leaving an empty place on my finger Especially at the end where we last touched.
