where I’ve been in dreams of it was
standing in line to cash a bad check
as gulf coast floating halo surrounds
the sun abettor way to my sins

striking the waves of never in mind
suddenly water is more than it speaks
three hour stretch lost in a dream
minute will pass as virtuous life

the coast is painted not in true color
but in angst and coarseness of breath
stepping on boat with lumps of cool ice
soothing throat constricting to death

freudian pole held slack in my hands
feeling fresh spray of something to cling
dream is of nothing but vaguely could be
the day I was ten and fished in the sea
