Night Divers on the Ocean
To rock upon the night ocean
The night divers and me in the ship
The moon, a work of scrimshaw shines
The palest eye seen
A dragon's pearl-orb tossed among the stars
On the rocks, a seal barks low and deep
bass to the thrum of the boat's whine
below lights tickle the waters
and a mystery is hidden from me
In the warm night below
it will be as if my mother is swaying me
as I drift off deeper
still deeper below the covers
