On this salty divide
between wind and gust
I wished for thunder
got a marble sky
I wished for every work day
to not feel the same
to not feel like one long
roll with a pause for night
the evening a bridge
day on one side day on the other
neither here nor there
I pretend sky’s a painting
flat squares overlaid on
different colored shapes
as light deepens
I watch the painting drying
ward off time watching
it go under the wheel
