Adrift, waiting to be rescued
Tone deaf, new to this game
Blessed, with morally flexible
Immune, to well-earned shame
—
Meandering, a slinky snake of character
Miles from shore, king of the black sea
One, the only critical number
The day, begins and ends with me
—
The devil, lights on my shoulder
Debating, which calamity is due
Pinpointed, like a shark’s sonar
The moment, you wandered into view
—
Survivor, of a patchwork love affair
Dreams, tasted like flat champagne
A lesson, you can pick again
Over reliance, too much left brain
—
Whip-smart, you reduce me to jello
Self-aware, I’m dense like concrete
Time, ours will eventually come
Perfect, when our orbits meet
